Student reviews

Professors

Alumni

Trevecca is a great school. I can honestly say that I learned a lot about my profession from going to Trevecca. I had a great time while I was there because I was involved in extracurricular activities. It's a very small Christian private school. The courses are rigorous, but there are many resources to help a student succeed. The only drawback is the lack of student diversity.

Campus and vibes

Freshman

So far, I have had a wonderful experience at Trevecca Nazarene University. My professors have inspired me, and my courses have challenged me. The community on campus is so lively and engaging, and the community off-campus is "neighborly."

Freshman

They are GREAT at communication, the campus itself is probably beautiful if not for all the construction, the counseling center was very helpful in my opinion, Dan Boone is amazing, and LINK was the only place I actually made friends and enjoyed. Trevecca has no interest in trying to fix any problems you have if they come up.

Current Student

Trevecca is unique in its intentional approach to community. From our professors to other faculty such as counselors, tutors, resident assistants, and peer mentors, Trevecca's staff is not helpful, they are incredibly supportive and committed to your wellbeing and success. While it is a small university compared to the other colleges around it, Trevecca makes up for it in a centered, life giving approach to your holistic education.
