The University of Redlands was established in 1907 on the principle of living a life of meaning, impact, and joy through personalized professional education. The main campus is located at 1200 East Colton Avenue in Redlands on a 160-acre property that has become a defining landmark of the city. The university operates through five divisions: the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Business & Society, School of Education, San Francisco Theological Seminary, and the Presidio Center for Sustainable Solutions, offering more than 90 academic programs.

The institution maintains a 13-to-1 student-faculty ratio and fields 22 NCAA Division III athletic teams. The university is ranked in the top 10 for best value schools by U.S. News & World Report and holds a Carnegie Classification as an "Opportunity College and University" for access and earnings. Since its founding, the university has graduated more than 50,000 alumni who work as active professionals across scholarship, politics, entrepreneurship, technology, and education worldwide.

Universities shape the futures of families: a student graduates, builds a career, finds a home, starts a household. At each stage, that person becomes responsible for people who depend on them. Families with college-bound children, employees with tuition plans, and alumni making career transitions all face a common question: if something happened to the income that supports these dreams, would the plans survive? That is what life insurance answers.
