Fresno Pacific University

Passion, knowledge, fellowship, faith

At Fresno Pacific University, you’ll join others who are united by a passion for knowledge, fellowship, and faith. Here, you’ll gain the confidence and determination to succeed in your career and in your life. Our campus is located in the heart of California’s Central Valley, within a short drive of mountains, beaches, and national parks. Whether you’re living in our campus dorms or commuting, you’ll never be more than a couple steps away from the excitement. Attend a weekend retreat, join a club, grab a frappe at Charlotte’s Coffee Corner, or start a game of Frisbee on the campus green—you’ll always find someone ready to join you.

Spiritual life is woven into the fabric of our community—it’s part of our classes, residence halls, and extracurriculars. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to grow in your faith through various ministry and worship options. The University offers 100+ areas of study with 39 majors and 40 minors, and we provide numerous study abroad opportunities and internships. More than 80% of our professors are experts in their fields and hold a PhD, meaning you’ll learn from the best no matter what you study. Our small class sizes allow professors to get to know you and invest in your life—challenging, mentoring, and pushing you to be your best.

Put yourself to the test not only in the classroom but also on the field, court, track, or in the pool as an FPU Sunbird athlete. We compete in the NCAA Division II Pacific West Conference and have 16 teams, over 53 national titles, and 294 student-athletes.

We’ve awarded more than $29 million annually to our students, 98% of whom receive some form of financial aid. Our financial aid resources include scholarships, grants, and loans that go all the way up to full tuition. And with our Four-Year Graduation Guarantee, you’ll get a head start toward achieving your personal goals.
