Urshan University, formerly known as Urshan College and Gateway College of Evangelism, is a Christian college in Wentzville, Missouri. It is owned and operated by the United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI). In 2012, the college was acquired by Urshan Graduate School of Theology, through which it offers graduate programs.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $13,496 average net price and remarkably low median debt of $5,500 at graduation make this one of the more affordable private college options you'll find, which matters. However, the 55% graduation rate and 69% freshman retention rate are real concerns — nearly one in three first-year students doesn't return for sophomore year, which is worth asking the school about directly. This is a strong option specifically if you're committed to the United Pentecostal faith community and want a small, ministry-focused education at a low financial risk, but students without that religious connection will likely find a better fit elsewhere.
