Point University is a private evangelical Christian college in West Point, Georgia and was founded in 1937 as Atlanta Christian College in East Point. The college announced its name change to Point University in 2011 and relocated its main campus to West Point in June 2012. As of 2025, over 2,900 students are enrolled both onsite and online.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $14,502 median debt at graduation is genuinely low, which is a real plus, but a 40% graduation rate and median earnings of just $34,700 a decade out raise legitimate questions about whether students are completing their degrees and landing financially stable careers. Worth considering if you're a committed evangelical Christian student who fits the faith-based culture and want an affordable, smaller campus environment — but come in with a clear academic plan, because the retention and completion data suggest many students don't finish.
