Palm Beach Atlantic University

PBA Welcomes International Students

You want to earn a degree in the United States at a university that welcomes students from around the world. One that offers not only strong academics, but a Christ-centered environment, too.

Welcome to Palm Beach Atlantic University, Florida’s top Christian college — located in one of the premier economic areas of the United States.
 

Our Location
Palm Beach Atlantic University, also called “PBA,” is located on the water in West Palm Beach, a cosmopolitan city in South Florida that was named one of America’s Best Places for Business and Careers by Forbes.com.

Our campus is:

Three hours from Disney World — the largest and most visited recreational resort in the world
Two hours from Miami — a major center for finance and commerce, culture and the arts, media and entertainment, and international trade
Minutes from the beach — Palm Beach County features 47 miles of beaches
Next door to Palm Beach — one of the most affluent cities in the world — so you will have access to internships and jobs at some of the top companies in the nation.

Our University
PBA prides itself on our diversity. We are home to students from all over the United States and more than 57 countries. Through our Office of International & Multicultural Programs and other student-centered services, you will receive the support you need to be successful — at PBA and beyond.

• International Student Orientation — this required activity will help you immediately connect to your new home
• International events — like International Evening in the Garden so you can deepen your connection to PBA and share your unique culture with our community
• A Christ-centered education — that infuses our more than 50 undergraduate and graduate programs, our “smart” classrooms and our state-of-the-art facilities
• Dedicated faculty — Christian men and women who are not only brilliant, but are down to earth and committed to your success
• Small classes — with a 13:1 student-to-faculty ratio and an average class size of just 17
• Research opportunities — the chance to work alongside your professors even in your first year
• Community service — we call it “Workship” (“work” and “worship”), an extensive community service program where you’ll serve God by serving others, here in the U.S. and abroad
• Student services — including access to an advisor who will partner with you throughout your time at PBA
• Clubs and organizations — more than 30 in fact, including the International Student Association, the International Business Club and the American Latino Intercultural Coalition (A.L.I.C.)

Speaking of PBA ...
“I love PBA because there’s a family bond that I have found here …. The students and the professors at PBA are truly one of a kind. Here, you are not just a number, rather you are seen as an individual.”
