Residence Life
Your living and learning environment at ACU will be shaped by our five pillars of community: advocacy, belonging, intentionality, safety and spirituality. We seek to encourage your spirit and your passion, your culture and your talents, your curiosity and your faith. This is a place for meaningful conversations, selfless service and unique self-expression — and we can’t wait for you to join in.
Spiritual Formation
Our Chapel services and ministry opportunities connect you with God, each other and the broader community in Abilene. ACU’s daily Chapel—running strong since 1906—is supplemented by small group and departmental chapels that invite you to learn and worship in close community.
Student Engagement
With 75+ student organizations, ACU is home to every opportunity you can imagine to apply your talents and enthusiasm, take on a leadership role or gain real-world experience managing an organization. Co-curricular and extra-curricular campus activities at ACU include intramural sports, Greek life, art, music and business clubs, and more.
Recreation and Wellness
Our world-class recreation and wellness center is bursting with possibilities for you to exert your energy and test your limits. From the lazy river to the bouldering wall, encouraged by personal trainers and equipped for outdoor adventures, you’ll discover just how far your potential can take you at ACU.
Study Abroad
ACU is surrounded by beauty and energy here in Abilene, Texas, and we’re also eager to connect you with God’s work all over the world through our faculty-led study abroad semester and summer programs.
