Welcome to Covenant University

I consider it a great privilege from God to open to you what Covenant University stands for, where she stands in this crisis ridden world and what we hope to accomplish as an end-time army in education revolution.

Covenant University, as a vision, is part of the Living Faith Church and the Liberation Mandate given to the Commission. As a University and as an academic group, we consider ourselves a certain part in the body of Christ.

I welcome you to a unique experience in your professional pursuits here at Covenant University.
