Since 1921, Simpson University has been guided by the motto “Gateway to World Service.” Simpson is committed to academic excellence and spiritual fervor, equipping students to serve Christ in the marketplace, classroom, boardroom and mission field.

Simpson believes in educating the whole person. We are intentional in creating a learning environment where intellectual exploration and spiritual growth combine with hands-on learning to create a richly rewarding college experience. Our faculty and staff value the opportunity to invest in the lives of young people, both in and out of the classroom.

Why Simpson? Beyond its beautiful location in scenic Northern California, its small class sizes, expert faculty, and vibrant student programs, here’s what former students have to say:

“At Simpson there are so many opportunities to grow and learn outside the classroom. I’ve been on a worship team, the missions task force, worked as a teaching assistant and marketing office intern, as well as served in student government. It has been a privilege for me to be here, to serve people, and to grow spiritually and intellectually.” (‘06 Management Information Systems graduate)

"Each of my professors values my point of view, input, opinions, personal life, relationships and career goals. At Simpson, I have been equipped with the skills and knowledge to teach.” (’06 Bible and Theology graduate)

"One professor gave me the courage to believe I can change the world for Christ no matter what I did." ('99 Youth Ministries graduate)

"Simpson had everything I was looking for in college: I'm getting an excellent education, I'm experiencing dorm life in a positive environment, and I'm always encouraged in my walk with Christ. The moment I stepped on campus I felt at home, and I couldn't imagine being anywhere else."('08 Psychology graduate)
