- Hope International University
Hope International University is a Christian college in Fullerton, California, in the United States. Its campus is located just south of California State University, Fullerton. Hope International University has an enrollment of approximately 1,210 students with a faculty of about 155.
The present institution came into being on September 1, 1997, although it traces its history to 1928. It was previously named "Pacific Christian College" and prior to that was known as "Pacific Bible Seminary." It has been regionally accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges since 1969 [http://www.wascsenior.org/institutions/affiliation.aspx?accessID=79] , and in 2006 it received additional accreditation from the Association for Biblical Higher Education.
Today, "Hope" consists of three colleges: Pacific Christian College, the School of Professional Studies (for working adults, on-line/distance education), and the School of Graduate Studies.
The majority of the buildings on the Hope International University campus originally were a shopping center, movie theater (the Titan Theater), and dormitories built by the California State University Foundation in the late 1960s. These are some of the finest remaining examples of pure Googie-style architecture in southern California.
