Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dormitories like?
Our on-campus dormitories are for students under the age of 23. Dormitories are available for full-time (12 credit hours or more), single students. If you live within a 50-mile radius of the campus, you may live at home.
The dormitories are much like homes and are very comfortable. Each dormitory includes a kitchen, living room, laundry facilities, and several bathrooms. Each dormitory is supervised by a student Resident Assistant.
Dormitory students may request to room with a friend or family member. This request must be submitted in writing as soon as possible to the Admissions Office for consideration.
Is housing available for married and older single students?
The Director of Commuter Student Ministries will assist married students and students over 23 years of age in locating off-campus housing. The greater Knoxville area is a reasonably priced housing market. Married couples can usually find housing at apartment complexes or subdivisions in the general campus area. A real estate professional familiar with our students' needs can be recommended upon request. You can also search for available housing online at knoxnews.com.
Will the credits I have earned at another college or university transfer?
The Academic Dean and Registar will work with each student transferring to Crown College. Credits from other colleges and universities may be transferred into our programs of study and will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
While Crown College has not sought accreditation, we are approved by the Tennessee Higher Education Commission to grant both undergraduate and graduate level degrees in approved programs.
What financial aid does Crown College offer?
Crown College does not accept direct federal funds. However, there are five scholarship programs available to qualified students. Scholarships are available for the children of full-time Christian workers, pastors' children, missionary children, young people reached through the bus ministry, as well as students who meet certain academic criteria. A complete list of scholarship programs will be sent upon request.
Students who have served in the armed forces may be eligible to receive GI Bill benefits. For more information, call 1.877.MY.CROWN to speak with Mr. Barry Britton.
Do you offer correspondence courses?
At this time, we do not offer correspondence courses. Students who have been accepted may enroll in December interim classes or those following the spring semester.
Students holding an undergraduate degree may enroll in the Master of Ministry program offered by extended study through Crown Seminary. For more information, click here, or call 1.877.MY.CROWN and ask for the seminary offices.
