The mission of Campbell University is to
graduate students with exemplary academic
and professional skills who are prepared
for purposeful lives and meaningful service.
The University is informed and inspired by its
Baptist heritage and three basic theological
and biblical presuppositions: learning
is appointed and conserved by God as
essential to the fulfillment of human destiny;
in Christ all things consist and find ultimate
unity; and the Kingdom of God in this world is
rooted and grounded in Christian community.
The University embraces the conviction that
there is no conflict between the life of faith
and the life of inquiry.

Sciences
The mission of Campbell University College
of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS)
is to educate students in a Christian
environment to be health care professionals
who will function effectively as a part of
an interdisciplinary team of health care
providers to meet existing and future health
care needs and who will provide leadership
to their profession and professional
organizations.
History
Implicit in Campbell University’s motto,
Ad Astra Per Aspera, to the stars through
difficulties, adopted during the dark days
of Reconstruction, are beliefs, aims, and
objectives that have guided this institution
through ever-changing circumstances
Campbell’s rise from a community school of
21 students to eminence as a great southern
academy and later to its present standing
among the state’s largest church-related
senior universities is illustrative of what
perseverance can accomplish in scaling the
heights.
Campbell University was founded as
Buies Creek Academy on January 5, 1887, by
James Archibald Campbell, a North Carolina
preacher who believed that no student
should be denied admission because of lack
of funds. In 1926, the school attained junior
college status and changed its name from
Buies Creek Academy to Campbell Junior
College. In 1961, Campbell became a senior
college. The name was changed to Campbell
University on June 6, 1979.
Graduate Programs begun in 1977, with
the Master of Education degree. The Master
of Science in Government was established
in 1982.
The Campbell University School of Law
was founded in 1976, and the LundyFetterman School of Business begun
in 1983. The Schools of Pharmacy and
Education were established in 1985. The
Divinity School was established in 1996
In over 100 years of service, Campbell
University has been served by only four
presidents:
James Archibald Campbell 1887–1934
Leslie Hartwell Campbell 1934–1967
Norman Adrian Wiggins 1967–2003
Jerry M. Wallace 2003–Present
Its current total enrollment is more than
9,400 students. The main campus total
enrollment is over 3,900 students, which
includes over 2,500 undergraduate students
and over 1,400 graduate students. In an
average year, the student body comes
from about 90 North Carolina counties, all
50 states, and over 40 countries. Sixty-six
percent of the students come from North
Carolina.
Campbell has a faculty-student ratio
of 1:19. This guarantees small classes
and personal attention for each student.
At Campbell, professors teach all classes.
Graduate assistants will not be found
instructing students. This contributes to the
quality education for which Campbell has
been well-known.
Accreditation
Campbell University is accredited by the
Commission on Colleges of the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools to
award Associate, Baccalaureate, Masters,
Education Specialist, and Doctorate degrees.
Contact the Commission on Colleges
for questions about the accreditation of
Campbell University. The Commission
should be contacted only if there is
evidence that appears to support the
University’s significant non-compliance with
an accreditation requirement or standard.
Normal inquiries about Campbell University,
such as admission requirements, financial
aid, educational programs, etc., should be

of the University and not to the Commission’s

is withdrawn for failure to comply with the
Standards. The approximate date for the
next validation review of the program by the
ARC-PA will be March 2021. The review date

Commission on Accreditation in
Physical Therapy Education
Graduation from a physical therapist education program accredited by the Commission
on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE), is necessary for eligibility to
sit for the licensure examination, which is
required in all states.
Effective November 6, 2013, Campbell
University has been granted Candidate for
Accreditation status by the Commission on
Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education.
Candidacy is not an accreditation status
nor does it assure eventual accreditation.
Candidate for Accreditation is a pre-
accreditation status of affiliation with the
Commission on Accreditation in Physical
Therapy Education that indicates the
program is progressing toward accreditation.
Process for Filing a Complaint with CAPTE
A formal written complaint may be filed
with CAPTE in the format provided on
the accreditation website at the address
below. Complaints may not be submitted
anonymously.

Therapy Education

CAPTE will take action only when it believes
the program may not be in compliance with:
1) Evaluative Criteria for Accreditation, 2)
Statement on academic integrity related
to program closure, or 3) Statement on
academic integrity in accreditation. Copies
of these documents can be obtained by
contacting CAPTE by email, phone, or online.
North Carolina Board of Nursing
The BSN Program received Initial Approval
Status from the North Carolina Board of
Nursing (NCBON) in January 2014. The
NCBON will return for a second site survey
and determine whether the program is
in compliance with all rules for nursing
programs. We anticipate that the Campbell
University Department of Nursing will be
receiving Full Approval Status in the spring of
2018. The Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools Commission on Colleges
accredit Campbell University to award
Associate, Baccalaureate and Doctorate
degrees. Submission of a Substantive
Change Prospectus by the Department of
Nursing occurred on May 2, 2014.
The Department of Nursing will seek
professional or specialized accreditation
from the Commission on Collegiate Nursing
Education (CCNE). The CCNE accreditation
evaluation consists of a review of the
program’s mission, goals, and expected
outcomes; and an assessment of the
performance of the program in achieving
the mission, goals, and expected outcomes
through the most effective utilization
of available resources, programs, and
administration.
