Malone University is a private Christian university in Canton, Ohio, United States. It was founded in 1892 by Walter and Emma Malone as a small, co-educational Bible institute called Cleveland Bible College. The institution has always maintained a close relationship with an evangelical branch of Quakerism, the Evangelical Friends Church – Eastern Region.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 51% graduation rate means roughly half of students who start don't finish, and that's a real concern worth discussing before committing. On the positive side, the median debt at graduation is a manageable $20,515, and the faith-integrated environment rooted in Quaker evangelical tradition is genuinely distinctive for students who want that kind of community. Worth considering if you're drawn to small Christian colleges and have a clear plan to stay enrolled, but look closely at what's driving that retention gap before deciding.
