At Point Loma Nazarene University, we know how critical your role can be in someone's journey to health. That’s why we’ve carefully tailored our curriculum to provide a complete education that not only equips you for every situation, but can lead to both outer and inner transformation. Because at PLNU, our mission is more than just providing you with a valuable degree — it’s providing you with the opportunity to find your purpose, and to live it out faithfully.  

See how Suzanne, a nursing student at PLNU, rekindled her passion to serve her community.

FOUNDED ON FINDING YOU.

PLNU ALUMNI TESTIMONIALS




“Point Loma did such a great job preparing me for my work. Being able to take such a diverse course load helped me have a really holistic approach to the whole Kinesiology field.

Jesús Ramos (Kinesiology, M.S.)

"PLNU being a faith-based school was the biggest thing that drew me in. I felt like PLNU was not only going to provide me with a degree but also provide for me holistically. I strongly identify with a community that looks to develop the person as a whole."
