Grace College and Theological Seminary is a beautiful campus on an even more beautiful lake. The lake is absolutely the most gorgeous thing you've ever seen, especially at sunset or sunrise. The class variety is extraordinary, with so many academic opportunities. The student life is amazing, everyone is so connected all the time.

Avery - 04/02/2024

I believe that Grace College and Theological Seminary is one of the best colleges in the state. The students and professors that I have met are always extremely nice and take the time to welcome you and make you feel comfortable. The class sizes are small and you can work with the professor easily and make meaningful connections within the classes.

Emily - 12/21/2021

Grace College started out great and keeps improving. They send out surveys to students about what the students want and then provides them. They just did a huge renovation. One thing about Grace College that stands out from other colleges is that freshman are given student mentors. They help you adjust to campus life and campus involvement. They also sit through freshman classes and work with professors as well as grade assignments. When a professor is busy, you have a mentor to go to.

Ella - 07/25/2020

This school is a lovely, very community-oriented space. Everyone here is very welcoming, and most of the people I have met here seem to be very genuine Christians. While it may not be particularly prestigious, it is very popular for its seminary, counseling, and teaching programs.

  14. What is your overall opinion of this school?

    The best thing about Grace is the way that they care for each individual student. I have never attended a College where the professors truly want the students to succeed and are teaching for more than just a paycheck. I will never forget the day when a fellow classmate had some personal issues yet they felt comfortable enough to actually tell the rest of us, including the professor about them. At that moment, the professor stopped everything and immediately prayed for this student. It was a powerful moment. Each of us could feel God's presence in the room.
