approximately 2,400 undergraduates and 1,100 graduate students, PLNU is committed to teaching, shaping, and sending students into the world prepared to use their gifts.
PLNU’s undergraduate programs are offered at the Point Loma campus. Renowned for its whole-person approach, PLNU's undergraduate educational opportunities include research, honors projects,
study abroad, short-term mission trips, student ministries, chapel services, athletics, and a host of clubs and organizations that enrich the classroom experience. Spiritual growth and putting faith
into action through service are central here.
Point Loma Nazarene University also offers graduate education in biology, business, education, nursing, and theology. PLNU’s School of Education offers graduate programs at four regional centers
in Arcadia, Bakersfield, the Inland Empire (including Corona), and San Diego’s Mission Valley. Master’s degrees, an education specialist degree, credentials, and certificates are available. In
addition, the Mission Valley Regional Center offers programs in business (MBA) and nursing (MSN and post-MSN certifications). Graduate programs in biology (M.A. and M.S.), ministry (M.Min.), and
theology (M.A. in religion) are offered on the Point Loma campus.
History
When Dr. Phineas F. Bresee responded to the growing need for a Christian college in the Los Angeles area, God used him to answer the heartfelt prayers of a group of six women who called themselves
the Bible College Prayer Circle. The group had come together in 1897, and on July 28, 1902, their prayers were answered. Bresee founded and became the first president of Pacific Bible College, which
would become Pasadena College and later Point Loma Nazarene University. The women had envisioned a Bible college, but Bresee’s vision was for a liberal arts institution. He believed that spiritual
and academic learning went hand-in-hand. That legacy is still with us today, as Point Loma remains committed to the liberal arts and to whole-person education.
Pacific Bible College began with 41 students. In 1910, Bresee purchased the Hugus Ranch land in Pasadena and fulfilled his dream of creating not just a Bible college but a holiness university.
Nazarene University opened in 1910 and from its beginning included women students.
By 1919, the name of the school had changed again to Pasadena College.
In 1964, W. Shelburne Brown became president of Pasadena College. He was instrumental in moving the college from its original location in Pasadena to its new Point Loma, San Diego home in 1973.
Dr. Bob Brower, PLNU’s current president, was inaugurated in 1998. In 1999, graduate programs in education were begun in Bakersfield and Mission Valley. A graduate program in education had remained
in Pasadena since the move. In 2001, the program moved to Arcadia. Also in 2001, an MBA program was added in Mission Valley. PLNU now has five locations: the undergraduate campus in Point Loma and
graduate programs at regional centers in Arcadia, Bakersfield, the Inland Empire, and Mission Valley San Diego. Point Loma currently offers graduate degrees in biology, business, education, nursing,
and theology.
Bresee’s commitments to the message of holiness and to helping the poor set the stage for the future work of the Church of the Nazarene and PLNU. Nazarene churches are known for their outreach,
for their service to those in need, and for addressing issues of social justice. Though the university began with only $4,000 in pledges, God has been faithful. Today, PLNU is home to more than 2,500
undergraduate students, and more than 1,200 graduate students.
There is a Bible on campus, encased in protective glass. This Bible belonged to Phineas Bresee. It’s opened to Isaiah 62, the chapter Bresee claimed for the school. Permanently marked with his
fingerprints, it displays a double message: God’s words in Isaiah 62 and Bresee’s love for those words. It’s a message of being grounded in Scripture, of pursuing a well-rounded education and
serving the poor out of a first and intense love for God and His Word. Bresee died in 1915, but his message still resonates. In fact, it defines Point Loma Nazarene University.
