Bushnell University is excited to announce a new journey to transform our campus, our students, and our community: Venture Further.
On Saturday, October 24, we kicked off the new campaign with a celebration of our past and a presentation of our vision for the future as we seek to provide meaningful resources for the community in which we live and serve.
Venture Further: The Campaign for Bushnell University is built upon three pillars:
EXPAND the College of Health Professions – Equipping Bushnell graduates to live out the healing mission of Jesus as competent and compassionate caregivers.
ENHANCE the student experience – Transforming the student experience through campus expansion and supporting a thriving learning community.
EQUIP the next generation of leaders – Continuing Bushnell’s commitment to making higher education affordable and accessible to all students.
With an overall fundraising goal of $36 million, we are incredibly grateful to announce that Venture Further is launching with over $11 million already raised, made possible through the generous support of our alumni, friends, and university partners.
We look forward with excitement and gratitude to all that this next chapter will make possible for Bushnell University and the communities we serve!

It`s National Transfer Student Week, and we`re celebrating the amazing transfer students who have joined our Bushnell family!
We recently caught up with Aidan Bolton, a new transfer student studying psychology with a focus on forensics, to hear about his experience at Bushnell so far:
“Bushnell has been exceptionally welcoming. From students to faculty, to classrooms or student life, the people at Bushnell have shown me what it feels like to live in a Christ-centered community. This is a place where I feel like I can belong, with people who help me to be the best version of myself."
We`re grateful for Aidan and all our transfer students, along with the families who support them throughout their journeys!
