    Overview

    Cornerstone University is a private, non-profit 4-year college located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. There are currently 1,383 undergraduates at Cornerstone and the school’s acceptance rate is 82%. The tuition at Cornerstone is $27,880.

    Cornerstone is a Interdenominational school. That means that the administration is affiliated with the Interdenominational faith. Classes may be designed with religious principles in mind, or some schools may even incorporate prayer into their schedule. Other schools with a religious affiliation may not be as active in their incorporation of the faith. It's a good idea to ask an admissions officer or current student what role faith has at Cornerstone to help you make an educated decision.
