Welcome to SSU! We are a small, trans-denominational, Christian learning community. SSU emphasizes Christian life together in all that we do in St. Stephen and as we study overseas. Two out of eight terms in the B.A. program are spent in Study Abroad in both Europe and South East Asia. These academic terms are normally attended by all students and are designed to bring to life our studies of Western Civilization and International Studies as we travel, mix with the peoples of distant continents, and learn on-site. Our Ministry Studies programs are also complemented by shorter two week “intensives” in the Bible Lands of Turkey and Greece or Israel.
