教會大學創辦於傳教士傳教之需，只是，當時鮮少中國人，尤其是精英階級，對基督教教義感興趣。到了1880年代，因著中國加進實行現代化運動，新式學堂紛紛成立，而傳教士及教會學校學生則成為溝通中西文化的橋樑，只是，教會大學如何向中國知識份子階層拓展－教會教育走向世俗化、專業化，甚至邁向高等教育，這些闆題均曾引起辦學者的爭議。又因教會大學長期受傳條款之維護，當1920年代非基督教運動的爆發之際，教會大學不得不調整辦學方向，並原意順應政府管理機制，正式受中國的教育行政機關管理；到了1930年代白色恐怖統治期間，國立大學學生受到前所未有的箝制之時，教會大學學生卻是個個激昂，有些甚至還成為日後學生運動的領袖人物。只是，安穩度過1949年的教會大學，俗在1952年高校院系調整之時被終結了。究竟是何原因致使教會大學全部消失？目前僅有葉張瑜的〈建國初期教會大學的歷史考察〉跨越1949年的歷史界線，至於，教會大學消失之因則是「一邊倒」向蘇聯學習的結果。然而，筆者卻以為，在全能政治統治之下，新中國的宗教政策必然符合統治者之需；又因1950年代以來的冷戰情勢，給了毛澤東徹底清除美帝殘餘的空間。在此情勢之下，教會大學自然也就可臨了被清算、改造的命運。

In late Qing dynasty, most Chinese, especially Chinese scholars showed little interest in Christian doctrines or Christian church.In 1 880s, China started her modernization progress, and now new- styled school were founded.
