Wilson University, in its endeavor to bring authentic education to its students, which in turn can provide genuine hope to the peoples to whom they minister, shall forever maintain the Bible as its primary and foundational textbook. All courses of study and classroom activities, as well as the conduct of the entire university, are in harmony with that conviction.
The Bible is a revelatory, divinely inspired, inerrant book. It is the only written document that contains the full and final revelation of God's provision and will for man.
God, the Father of all, is revealed to man in the person of Jesus Christ, who is the incarnated revelation of God to mankind as presented in the Bible. Jesus Christ reconciles mankind from historic estrangement from God, providing a way for reinstatement of man to his rightful place as the bearer of the image of God. This reinstatement is salvation.
By this reinstatement of relationship, all things become new. New dignity is attached to all things, including God, others, work, and self.
The University embraces the lordship of Jesus Christ and further believes that the apostles revealed the mind of Christ. Their teaching on any matter takes precedence over what may have been or may be taught by churches historically or currently.

Student Life seeks to enrich the university experience through life-transforming programs and services, resulting in an integrated education known for leadership, ministry, Christian faith, and the total development of the student. We are here to help guide students as they continue to develop into the person that God has uniquely designed them to be.
The Student Life unit cultivates leadership and spiritual formation in an environment that encourages redemptive lift, character development, and citizenship.
