Campus Life
Welcome to EI! We are a close-knit community with students from different cultural and theological backgrounds. In this diverse setting, students are able to come together while being enriched and challenged by each other's perspectives.
In keeping up with our mission and purpose of biblical discipleship training, we intentionally maintain a student body of 50-90 students. We believe our smaller community helps us achieve our goal in the best way. We hope you choose to join us and we would love to show you around our campus!
Learn About Daily Life as a student

1. Biblical
Because spiritual growth is rooted in the principles of the Word of God, daily Bible study is at the heart of our training program. Having crafted our courses over 50 years, we focus on the essential truths needed for personal growth and ministry. In just 21 months, a student will complete about 60 semester hours of impactful instruction. For further information, see course descriptions under each of our diploma programs.

2. Devotional
Prayer is a vital ingredient to spiritual health; therefore, the development of a vital prayer life demands much more than instruction. Prayer is a skill that must be learned by experience and practice. At EI, we have structured the schedule to provide multiple opportunities to develop a devotional life through prayer.
Time is allotted daily to allow students to be alone with the Lord in prayer and the Word. A combination of daily discipline and guidance from staff enables each student to discover and develop a quiet time that matches the individual’s needs and temperamental bents.
Prayer times are frequent and varied. Through prayer partners, small group prayer, days of prayer, corporate worship and prayer with the local church, we seek to give the Lord an opportunity to teach about prayer in all its multiple expressions.

3. Physical Education
In addition to the core classes above, every student is required to take part in a daily PE class. Most of the time this is the EI tradition of volleyball. The games are competitive and fun, and love it or hate it, this is a great opportunity for the Holy Spirit to do a sanctifying work as players learn teamwork, dealing with adversity, and other practical lessons.

4. Service
The church is called the Body of Christ. Proper functioning of this Body occurs only when each member pulls with the whole group. Learning to serve in harmony with others is a vital part of character growth.
In addition to personal growth, students reap other benefits of serving together. Tuition is kept to a minimum by student participation in daily maintenance. All students serve four hours a week in maintaining the grounds and buildings. Everyone is involved. The mature Christian is a servant at heart.

5. Community
At EI, we do more than just attend classes, play volleyball, and complete service hours—we live life together. Our goal is to create a community of like-minded Christian students who embody our core values. We eat together, work together, learn together, and have fun together, building a strong, supportive community every step of the way.
