An Eagle’s View of Asbury University
Gain a bird’s-eye view of our tree-lined campus nestled in the Kentucky hills. You’ll find beautiful learning spaces, extensive athletic and equestrian facilities and a place where life-changing friendships take root.
Asbury is a place where I have been able to grow further and deeper into the person God has intended for me to be. I have found God in this place, as well as a supportive and kind community.
