Starting Fall 2026, eligible students at Christian Academy of Guatemala may enroll in select University of Mobile courses through UM’s Freshman Academy, which offers both dual enrollment and early enrollment opportunities. Students earn both high school and college credit simultaneously, gaining early exposure to university-level academics while remaining in their home school environment.
“Our partnership with Christian Academy of Guatemala is a natural extension of the University of Mobile’s mission to multiply Kingdom leaders for the glory of God and the good of the world,” said University of Mobile President Charles Smith.
“This dual enrollment partnership allows students in Guatemala to experience the University of Mobile early, earn college credit and take meaningful steps toward the calling God has placed on their lives. It also reflects our commitment to investing in students around the world who desire a college education rooted in truth, excellence and service,” Smith added.
Located in San Cristobal near Guatemala City, Christian Academy of Guatemala is an accredited K-12 school founded in 1974 by five missionary families as an educational service to evangelical missionary families. Its original mission continues: to provide a biblically based, quality English language education to prepare lives for Christian service.
