It was established in 1951 in Scottsbluff as Platte Valley Bible College.
The college is accredited by the Association for Biblical Higher Learning (ABHE) and offers on-campus and distance education programs leading to bachelor's degrees, associate degrees, and certificates.
The lack of demand and difficulty to provide for such programs eventually led to the discontinuance of the medical mission program at the college.
Three years later, Summit Christian College moved into a newly remodeled campus in the neighboring city of Gering.
