“ A Safe Space to Discover

At Graceland, the community really feels like family — students and professors, they all become a part of your story. The thing I will remember most about my time at Graceland is the friendships I was able to cultivate with beautiful people from all backgrounds.

Conveniently Located

Situated in an urban setting just 20 minutes from Kansas City, our commuter campus in Independence, Missouri offers access to our elementary education program.

Studying at Independence

Sitting on nine beautifully landscaped acres, Graceland’s Missouri campus is located just a few minutes west of the city’s historic Independence Square. Here, you can enjoy many coffee shops and restaurants, perfect for studying or grabbing a bite to eat between classes.
