  • MISSION Taylor University Is an Interdenominational Christian
    MISSION Taylor University is an interdenominational Christian Liberal Arts university where faith, living and learning are integrated. Our mission is to develop servant leaders marked with a passion to minister Christ’s redemptive love and truth to a world in need. HISTORY Founded in 1846, Taylor University is one of the oldest evangelical Christian colleges in America. Conceptualized with the conviction that women as well as men should have an opportunity for higher education, Taylor University began as Fort Wayne Female College in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and then became Fort Wayne College. In 1890, the school merged with the Fort Wayne College of Medicine and changed its name to Taylor University in honor of Bishop William Taylor. Three years later, Taylor University moved to Upland, Indiana, because of a population boom in the central part of the state. As a branch of Taylor University, the first distance learning course was offered in 1938 by way of correspondence. Seventy years later, Taylor University Online has grown to offer over 110 courses online, enabling over 1,000 students to achieve educational and personal goals each year. STATEMENT OF FAITH Taylor University is firmly committed to the lordship of Jesus Christ and to evangelical Christianity. To assure the central place of Christian principles in the philosophy and life of the University, the trustees, administration, faculty, and staff believe that: • There is one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – the ultimate Creator and Sustainer of all things in heaven and on earth. • The Holy Bible is the only inspired, authoritative written word of God, progressively revealing God’s will for humankind.
