Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • The Village III adds 286 beds, supporting growth and residential recruitment.
  • Green Family gifts enabled The Village and Commons, proving fundraising execution.
  • Assistant Vice Provost Lisa Jellum joined Aspen Rising Presidents Fellowship for 2026-27.

What critics are saying

  • Enrollment nearing 1,000 strains housing; Residence Hall III completes only December 2026.
  • Dependency on Church of the Highlands donations creates concentration risk if giving slows.
  • A faith-specific ministry model limits employer optionality if church demand weakens.

What makes Highlands College unique

  • Church of the Highlands bankrolls Highlands College with campus-built ministry training.
  • July 2026 enrollment reached 506 undergraduates across 40 states, with 63% out-of-state.
  • Fall 2026 launches the Dunn School of Business and Business Leadership degree.
