We believe in the future of every Asbury student, and our mission is to help you reach your goals. Located inside the Kinlaw Library, the Catalyst Center provides opportunities for you to apply your learning outside of the classroom, enhancing your academic, professional and personal growth. We call these opportunities “catalysts” and believe God uses them powerfully in your journey of belonging and becoming.
Or maybe you just need help figuring out the best major to line up with your skills and passions!
We believe in the power of learning through:
During the fall and spring semester, we are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The Catalyst Center for Applied Learning has two locations in Kinlaw Library Catalyst Main and Catalyst II.

Interested in Mentorship?
The Asbury University Mentor Program | for the professions provides students with opportunities to expand their network and learn from someone who has “gone before them.” This one-on-one mentoring relationship allows each mentee to receive individual attention and guidance related to career and personal aspirations, self-discovery, and aptitude awareness, along with professional development and networking skills to increase workforce readiness.
The Mentor Program aims to prepare students for successful careers in their chosen field by integrating academic learning with real-world experiences, thus becoming a model for workforce readiness and global impact.
Need help writing a resumé, taking your LinkedIn profile to the next level, practicing a job interview or learning about good matches for your skills?

Get Involved in Discipleship
While discipleship is intertwined with all expressions of campus life at Asbury, we have several opportunities we do very intentionally to give students entry points for new growth. Every discipleship moment at Asbury is a reflection of Acts 2 – being together for prayer, conversation, and encountering Scripture. When Asbury students enter these discipleship moments, they grow in holiness, stewardship, and mission.
Asbury students are regularly found traveling around the world to share the love of Christ with others. Visit or email the Catalyst Center team (catalystcenter@asbury.edu.) to learn more bout how you can give back — either right here in the community or around the world.
