Covenant College Reviews

"Attending Covenant College was amazing experience, but it definitely isn't for everyone. I graduated with minimal debt because my parents assisted with some of my education costs. However, if it wasn't for their generosity, I would be drowning in debt.What was most attractive about Covenant was the community, the academics, and the chapel teachings. If you like small schools, enjoy the outdoors, and have a heart for learning (and financial aid), then this is the school for you."

"Students build a strong community and professors invest in your life outside of class. I appreciated the range of electives I could take to broaden my liberal arts education. Students are encouraged and supported in growing their Christian faith stronger."

"Covenant College has developed a rigorous, biblically based curriculum that, through the tireless work of professors, hones students' strengths, identifies individual weaknesses, and supports graduate students in course work while acknowledging the current professional careers and time restraints of their students. The program is somewhat of a hybrid where students attend on-campus courses during the summer for 3 weeks and complete both pre-campus and post-campus assignments for each of three years. This works best for a traditional academic schedule and is unlike the majority of graduate level programs. Though the program is primarily focused on individuals seeking employment within the private school sector, professors willingly adapt their courses for students from all different backgrounds and interests including educators from public and international schools. The Educational Leadership program is one of two tracks toward a Masters in Education; the other being Integrated Curriculum and Instruction. As an alum of the Educational Leadership track there are significant financial breaks if I were to attend the other track. This program is not only academically rigorous, but also helps grow the individual as a whole. Cohorts tend to become very close, each individual sharing his/her own experience and building each other up. It truly becomes a Professional Learning Community that transcends state, national, and even international boundaries. Perhaps the best review I can give is: I attended Covenant as an undergraduate, then returned as a graduate student. I plan to join the other track in the future. If a doctorate program existed, I would likely join that too."

"Covenant College is located on the top of Lookout Mountain in Georgia, right up the mountain from Chattanooga, Tennessee. From 1-59, it looks like a castle. To me, Covenant College is home. I chose to go to this private, Christian liberal arts school because I was interested in playing soccer for the Lady Scots, but Covenant became much more than just soccer to me. My professors both challenged and cared about me. I was taken seriously as an academic and my opinions were always encouraged. I learned and grew exponentially during my four years on the mountain. I was taught how to view the world through a Christian worldview, which was an invaluable lesson that stay with me much longer than any book I read or paper a wrote. I would highly recommend Covenant to students who are serious about learning and serious about their faith."

"It was a wonderful school, great faculty that cared"
