“I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now” (Philippians 1:3, 4). Cincinnati Christian University was started by the church, exists for the church, is accountable to the church, and is sustained by the church. To thank supporting churches and to recruit additional ministry-minded students from local churches, we have initiated the Partner Church ministry. We encourage your church to become a CCU Partner Church.
Eligibility
- A CCU “Partner Church” is any congregation investing in the ministry of CCU by providing financial support (gifts) of at least $3,000 annually through the church’s missions ministry.*
Basic Partner Church Benefits
- New full-time students who are active members of Partner Churches may receive a $3,000 annual tuition scholarship ($1,500 per semester) upon enrolling in CCU (CBC, CBS, or CALL). Full-time upperclassmen already enrolled at CCU who are active members of Partner Churches may receive a $750 annual tuition scholarship.**
- Church staff members serving with a Partner congregation may receive a 50% tuition scholarship toward classes in any division of CCU (CBC, CBS, or CALL).
Additional Benefits for Partner Churches
- Two complimentary tickets to CCU’s annual Christmas musical event
- 25% discount to attend training events sponsored by CCU (for example, the Youth Ministry Summit)
- Two paid registrations for CCU’s annual IMPACT! and Reunions event
- Personalized campus tour with lunch provided for ten (10) individuals in the CCU dining hall or at nearby Skyline Chili (arranged through Mark Koerner — mark.koerner@CCUniversity.edu or 513-244-8112).
*To qualify, Partner Churches accept certain other responsibilities as well:
- Agree to financially support CCU at a minimum of $3,000 per year. If a church is in the process of becoming a qualified Partner Church, students will receive the scholarship during the next full semester after all qualifications are met. (Unless special arrangements have been made in advance through consultation with the CCU Church Relations Department, all gifts to the University must be unrestricted, i.e. general gift funds. Individuals cannot designate a contribution through the church to the benefit of a specific student as this is a violation of the Internal Revenue Code.)
- Assign a Liaison (representative) from the church who will promote the Partner Church Scholarship to church staff, its college-bound youth, their parents, any other person who might be a prospective CCU student and promote the educational ministry of CCU. The Liaison will aid in communication and promotion as outlined in the Partner Church Application.
- Place a CCU website link on the church’s website. This link will provide information about the benefits of the Partner Church program and other opportunities available at CCU.

**Receiving Federal or State financial assistance based on financial need may reduce or eliminate the Partner Church scholarship in order that the student may still qualify under federal/state regulations for assistance provided by the government. This scholarship is in addition to all other financial aid awarded to the student (not to exceed 100% tuition). Students must maintain proper academic and disciplinary standing in order to qualify.Deadline for Enrollment for the 2012-2013 academic year: July 31, 2012
