Emory and Henry College is a small private school. Three things that I love about this school are their friendliness, scholarships, and engagement. Since Emory and Henry College is small. Everybody will get to know each other in many places, such as gym, classroom, tutor center, library, and cafeteria. By the time a student is a junior, he or she will say hi to everybody he or she sees on the campus, not just students, but also the faculty and staff as well. Emory and Henry college receives a lot of financial support and funding. Every year, students can apply for scholarships based on their performance. These scholarships and funding also give students opportunities to study aboard. Engagement means engaging to the world – study abroad. Do they have to pay for anything while they travel there? Yes and no, they do not have to pay for tuition, flights or housing there, but they must pay for their own expense.in addition, during the study aboard, they can find a part-time job.
Its a beautiful campus in Southwestern Virginia. Awesome programs and great recognition! The food is great, the staff is amazing, and the campus safety is awesome. The tuition is a little high, but given it is a private liberal arts college that should be expected. It is definitely worth the money.
