We welcome students from a variety of faith backgrounds and honor your individual beliefs. Whatever your path at Roberts, you can trust that your thoughts, faith, and worldview will always be respected.

Imagine being in a place where faculty and staff genuinely care about you and your goals and dedicate their time and expertise to help you succeed. From time to time, our faculty and staff may pray for you, your class, or even with you (if you desire), especially during difficult times. At Roberts, you’re never alone on your journey.
