What Sets Us Apart
We require all students to take a religion course during their time at TCU. But this isn’t just about upholding the tradition of the “C” in our school’s name. We want all of our students to explore whatever facet of religion they’re interested in.
The religion department at TCU offers courses that explore the role, origins and impacts of multiple religions across our world.
