About Point Loma Nazarene University

Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) is a private Christian university located on a 90-acre campus overlooking the Pacific Ocean in the Point Loma neighborhood of San Diego, California. The university offers undergraduate degrees in over 60 fields of study, as well as graduate programs in education, business, nursing, and more. PLNU's Office of Multicultural and International Student Services supports F-1 and J-1 visa students through I-20 processing, immigration advising, orientation, and ongoing visa compliance throughout their enrollment. While PLNU is primarily a residential campus with on-campus housing options, availability can be limited, and many international students, particularly graduate and transfer students, arrange their own off-campus accommodations in the San Diego area.
