Crown College is a private Christian college in St. Bonifacius, an exurb of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, in the U.S. state of Minnesota. It is affiliated with the Christian and Missionary Alliance and is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, and the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education. The College is also a member of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU).
Crown College is situated on a 215-acre (87 ha) campus near the communities of Waconia and St. Bonifacius.
Prior to occupying its current campus in June 1970, the college had been located within the city of St. Paul and occupied several buildings in the block northeast of the intersection of Englewood Avenue and Albert Street. The old campus's Bethany Hall and library/classroom building remain, and part of the site is now occupied by the Friends School of Minnesota.
Beginning in 1916 with four students who wanted to study the Bible, Crown College quickly developed into a training school for those interested in ministry and missionary preparation. A few years later, it became known as St Paul Bible Institute.
In the 1950s the name was changed to St. Paul Bible College, and accreditation was obtained through The Association for Biblical Higher Education (ABHE). In 1970 the college moved from its original home in the city of St. Paul to a new location west of Minneapolis, and sought regional accreditation which was granted by The North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA) in 1975. The college also is a member with the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU).
