The mission of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities is:

“To advance the cause of Christ-centered higher education and to help our institutions transform lives by faithfully relating scholarship and service to biblical truth.”

The CCCU is an association, not an accrediting agency.  All member schools must be regionally accredited. Thus, members tend to be the larger Christian universities.
