Point Loma Nazarene University Snapshot
PLNU exists to provide higher education in a vital Christian community where minds are engaged and challenged, character is modeled and formed, and service is an expression of faith. Being of Wesleyan heritage, we strive to be a learning community where grace is foundational, truth is pursued, and holiness is a way of life.
As you might have guessed from the name, Point Loma Nazarene University is a Christian school. PLNU offers liberal arts and professional programs in 50 areas of study on its main campus in San Diego, and select graduate and professional programs at regional centers in the California towns of Bakersfield, , and Mission Valley San Diego. Some 4,500 students (undergraduate and graduate) are enrolled at the school, which has a 15-to-1faculty-student ratio. PLNU dates back to 1902 when it was established by Dr. Phineas F. Bresee, one of the founders of the Church of the Nazarene.
