ACADEMICS

Our Nelson University Partnership

River City Leadership College students receive their formal coursework and instruction through the Nelson University (formerly SAGU) Extension Program. Through this partnership, RCLC students achieve academic credentials through a regionally accredited university taught by ministry-focused faculty while maintaining experiential connections to the local church. All courses are completed exclusively online and are supplemented with the on-campus ministry practicums.

Established in 1927, Nelson University is a private, Christian university preparing undergraduate and graduate students spiritually, academically, professionally, and cross culturally to successfully fill evangelistic, missionary and church ministry roles and to provide quality educational and professional Christian service throughout the world.
