Over 120 students at Taylor share your experience of being a “third-culture” student, as someone who spent a significant amount of developmental years in a culture other than your passport country. Some have served with their families in missions, and some have traveled the globe with the military or for business. Taylor supports MKs and TCKs with an active chapter of MuKappa, a student organization dedicated to missionary and third culture students.

Visit Virtually or in Person

Visiting campus is the best way to get a sense for what Taylor is really like, and if it’s a good fit for you. If at all possible, we would love for you to visit campus in person. Taylor is open for guests throughout the school year and summer months. Schedule your personal campus tour today!
