Identity

New Saint Andrews College opened its doors in 1994 in Moscow, Idaho, founded by local pastor Doug Wilson and colleagues to revive classical Christian education amid what they saw as declining standards in modern universities. With just over 200 undergraduates, it draws students who crave an intense immersion in Western thought through original texts, from Homer to Lewis. You'll thrive here if you're a devout Christian eager for rigorous humanities training in a close-knit community, but the single-degree focus and remote rural setting demand commitment—no room for those seeking variety or big-city energy.
