At a time when rising education costs and federal cutbacks continue to limit access to higher learning, Poinsette International Christian University (PICU) is providing a groundbreaking pathway for faith-driven scholars, ministry leaders, entrepreneurs, and community influencers to pursue degree programs—without the burden of student debt.
PICU, a global leader in online Christian education, is transforming the way Kingdom-minded individuals prepare for their purpose. Offering 100% online bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral, and dual-degree programs, the university is uniquely positioned to support students seeking academic excellence integrated with faith-based principles.
Founded by Dr. Leslie Poinsette, PICU was birthed out of a passion to close the gap she witnessed in Christian education—particularly for leaders whose service and Kingdom impact often go unrecognized or financially unsupported.
“I saw a gap in the Kingdom,” said Dr. Poinsette during a recent interview. “With everything happening in higher education—shutdowns, restrictions, rising costs—I knew God was calling me to provide a different way. Students deserve a degree that’s accessible, honorable, and within reach.”
Dr. Poinsette shared that her own experience with student loan debt—accumulated while pursuing bachelor’s and master’s degrees—fueled her mission to create an institution that eliminates financial barriers while maintaining academic and spiritual integrity.
A University Built on Faith, Flexibility, and Impact
PICU offers:
Flexible Online Programs – Learn at your own pace, from anywhere in the world.
Holistic Christian Education – Programs that nurture both academic growth and spiritual development.
Personalized Support – Faculty and staff dedicated to guiding students from enrollment to graduation.
Global Reach – Students around the world are empowered to integrate faith, service, and leadership into their callings.
The university also provides Honorary Doctorate Degrees, recognizing ministry leaders, community activists, entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals who have demonstrated excellence, service, and impact. Nominations remain open through December 30th.
