Glendale

Arizona Christian University is excited to announce that we are moving from our current location to a new campus, a few miles away in Glendale, AZ, the former home of Thunderbird School of Global Management. This opportunity gives ACU room to grow on a campus that is much larger and has dozens of state of the art academic and student life buildings.  The move follows the completion of a land exchange agreement through which ACU is exchanging land of equal value – for its campus on Cactus Road in Phoenix. We hope you will share in celebrating God’s faithfulness as ACU’s pursues it’s vital mission!

Len Munsil

PRESIDENT OF ARIZONA CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY

“Frankly, this opportunity for ACU and for your students, and all future students, is nothing short of a miracle. We hope you and your student will share in celebrating God’s faithfulness and provision for ACU’s vital mission. Thank you for your support, cooperation, and prayers!”

Michael Crow
