I'm currently dual enrolled here at Shorter, and have loved it! I'm taking online classes and the professors I've had are so awesome. Classes are flexible, manageable workloads are assigned, I love the Christian worldview that Shorter teaches from, and it's very easy to contact professors and staff if you have any questions. I can't wait to continue learning here!
Shorter University is a very great school for anyone who wants to learn! The school is located in Rome, Ga, which is a small town in the north western part of Georgia. The school is a Christian based school and does not allow any parties on campus, which is great because you can focus on your education more! The sports teams aren’t really all that great but the Hawks spirit is felt through the campus! The school has newer building and some building a that have been there since the school was first built, which is pretty cool! I would highly recommend Shorter University to any student who is wanting to grow in their education and their faith!
My name is Melanie. I am currently a freshman attending Shorter. My experience this year has been different. Taking this step is something I consider very brave for a person to do. From leaving behind family and friends, to creating and experiencing new things. I have met wonderful people here and the teachers are all very kind. It is something I am still definitely getting used to, but I need it in order to grow as a person. I would have loved to dorm here but I commute. I have in person classes. I believe engaging more helps out in the long run. Not only is this a university for teaching the material needed for majors, It is also a Christian school. I am able to learn more about God here. He chose this place for me, and I believe in him.
