Admission For African Renewal University. Visit Our Admissions Portal For Details
Africa Renewal University (originally Gaba Bible Institute) was founded based on Africa’s great need for Christian leaders to rise up to share the compassion of Christ and the gospel of hope in a society that is desperately longing for transformation. In January 2007, the school began with 35 students and a commitment to equip Christian leaders for the transformation of society. Today, there are over 150 students from 45 different tribes in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Sudan, Eritrea and Kenya who are being equipped as leaders in ministry and community development.
