FACILITIES
C.T.U. has a ten-acre campus at 12021 Old
St. Augustine Road, Jacksonville Florida. We
also have, in the same facilities, the First
Conservative Baptist Church providing space
for classrooms, offices, library and book
services. There is also a kitchen, dining
hall, chapel, and computer lab. Plenty of
parking is available as well. Plans already
exist for future growth and expansion.
C.T.U. has modern
climate control classrooms, and adequate
furnishings, audio-visual equipment, and
many teaching/learning aids. Its library has
significant research resources. The campus
bookstore makes available all texts, Bibles,
and other books for students, and is open to
the public. Also, there are many restaurants
nearby. Snacks are available in the
lunchroom during break times, when classes
are in session.
LOCATION
C.T.U. is conveniently located
in South Jacksonville, in a community called
Mandarin, at 12021 Old St. Augustine Road,
just one mile south of I-295 and 3.4 miles
north of I-95. This interstate loop connects
with I-10 from the west and I-95 from the
north and south. The area is also served by
U.S. Highways 1, 17, 23, and 301.
Jacksonville is accessible by air at the
Jacksonville International Airport, by train
through the Amtrak station, and by bus
through the city terminal downtown, and the
Greyhound terminal.
Jacksonville is a major southeastern city
with a population of over one million and a
geographical area larger than any U.S. city.
The "Bold New City of the South" has
tremendous potential and room for growth,
and it has much to offer students, families
and Christian workers.
CAMPUS
BOOKSTORE
C.T.U. has a complete Christian
bookstore on campus. Students, both internal
and external, will find every book needed
for all course work in the campus bookstore.

your own personal student bookstore discount
card. (Click

LIBRARY
For the on campus study and
research convenience of each student, C.T.U.
has a growing theological library with
commentaries, histories, and word study
texts, as well as textbooks covering almost
every spectrum of Bible study. The library
books, however, are for on-campus use only,
not for non-enrolled students. We also
provide enrolled students (on-campus) with
access to libraries worldwide via the
Internet.
HOUSING
C.T.U. currently has no student
housing of its own available. However,
Jacksonville has every conceivable type of
housing in all price ranges. Houses and
apartments are more reasonable that in most
major cities. Many neighborhoods and
communities within the city are actually
like small towns. There are approximately
5,000 apartments and condos surrounding our
campus.
EMPLOYMENT
Jacksonville, with a population
of over one million people is a major
business hub of banking, communication,
distribution, education, insurance,
manufacturing, medicine, shipping, tourism,
wholesaling, and the U.S. Navy. Also, the
area has a significant percentage of
born-again Christians and Bible believing
churches. There is therefore great
opportunity to find both ministry and
secular work.
EDUCATION
Jacksonville provides many
excellent opportunities for learning. It is
the home of Edward Waters College, Florida
Community College of Jacksonville,
Jacksonville University, Jones College,
Trinity Baptist College, the University of
North Florida, and extensions of several
other universities. There are a number of
vocational, technical and business schools.
Also, there are many Christian day schools.
CULTURE
The city has its own symphony
orchestra, ballet company, national football
league, theaters, art galleries, museums,
zoo, and many concerts and special events.
RECREATION
The area provides many wholesome
and enjoyable opportunities: the beach,
inland waterways, boating, fishing, hunting,
parks, special sites, attractions, golf,
tennis, collegiate and professional sports,
and other special events. In short,
Jacksonville is a wonderful place to serve
God, live, work, worship, and study.
