Student Stories

Alphacrucis has provided me with a solid grounding in my faith, providing insight and inspiration on what it means to apply my faith in business.

Adrian Chen
AC Graduate, Founder of Huskee Coffee Cup

I was studying the same degree at another university when the lecturer said that our worldview affects everything we do, especially in this job.  At that moment, I realised I needed to find a new place to learn that aligns with my worldview. After asking around, I found Alphacrucis and I have never looked back.

Abigail Comafay
Bachelor of Applied Social Science

My faith has grown through my study of theology - getting into the historical texts has meant that I see the Bible and God, in a whole new way. On top of that, I'm going to graduate with a business degree that will open up more options – I’m really excited about my future.

Sam Moore
Bachelor of Business & Bachelor of Theology

To me, being a Christian teacher means being able to speak hope and life to the kids in school… I went straight into a Diploma of Music Industry after year 10. I then did a Bachelor of Ministry (Worship), and ended up with a Master of Teaching (Primary). I was able to save a few years of study and go into a job I love at 21.
