Coastland University (also known as Coastland Christian Bible College and University) began holding classes in 1999. It is an unaccredited, non-denominational, non-profit, co-educational Christian Bible college located in Southern California, United States. It uses classroom space at area churches and other venues rather than a dedicated campus.

The physical address of the university/ministry is Rancho Santa Margarita, California, 92688. The university's president is Dr. Brett Peterson, who has been a minister, a pastor, and a professor.[1]

Coastland has several degree options available, including biblical studies, divinity, pastoral care and counseling, and theology.[2] Coastland's degrees are not accredited by any organization.[3]

Coastland has an articulation agreement with Liberty University, so many of their classes will transfer to them.[4] They went through the accreditation process with the Association of Higher Biblical Education, but they required a librarian and 30,000 books and Coastland decided not to pursue accreditation.
