About Us
ABC University Liberia has now reopened after 12 years of war in the country with the first cohort of freshmen students who will graduate, by God's help, in 2012. Once again the Teaching of God's Truth for Transformation has begun in earnest. After a rigorous assessment process the Commission of Higher Education in Liberia has officially awarded ABC University with permanent university status. The campus, nestled at the base of the Nimba Mountains, makes a conducive environment for study and reflection. It’s an ideal setting as a future learning center for higher Christian education in the West African region.
Location
The college is located in the community of Yekepa, high in the beautiful
mountains of eastern Liberia. The 22-building campus includes six residence
halls, a 10,000-volume library, classroom units, staff housing, a chapel,
a dining hall, and one of the few gymnasiums in the country. Liberia is
centrally located among a number of English-speaking countries, enabling
the college to enroll students from Sierra Leone, Ghana, and Nigeria.
Vision and Mission
The vision of ABC University is to teach Truth
for transformation. The mission of the university
is to spread God's Truth through Christian leaders
of excellence and integrity.
The faculty of ABC University view the human being and all of creation as a
whole because it is all part of the handiwork of God.
