Minors

We feel this unique offering provides you with the academic preparation to help you grow in your spiritual walk with the Lord and prepares you for vocational and ministerial service when you leave the College.
In addition, Clearwater Christian College has designed curriculum to allow graduates to leave with directed instruction in 17 specific academic fields, 6 of which are distinctive from any academic major offered (see asterisk).

|  | Exercise and Sport Science major Brad came to CCC because of the godly environment that accompanied his specific choice of majors. Not only does he appreciate the quality of education, but also the individual attention of staff and faculty members. "A Clearwater education is a small type of setting, with excellent teachers that will answer a one-on-one question to help you succeed. I help out the faculty and staff with babysitting, moving, and every day jobs around the house. I love being able to help them with the little things, because they do so much for all of us." When not in class or studying, Brad enjoys going to the gym and hanging out with faculty and staff. "CCC has a great family-oriented atmosphere academically, while still having high teaching credentials." |
