The expectation would be that you chose the university because religion is important. It’s not “shoved down your throad” as much as it is expected to matter to you every day, pretty much in everything you do, and you’re helped in staying on track - required bible study, required chapel, required religion classes. Almost all students will be believers, even if they aren’t necessarily Protestant Christian. They don’t want you to choose them just because they have a beautiful campus in Malibu.
