Some of the Biggest Reasons You’ll Want to Choose Bethel

We believe you really can change the world!
So many of our graduates say Bethel was a life-changing experience. These graduates are now making a great impact in the lives of others as a result of their Bethel University experience!
We give you the chance to stay close to God
At Bethel, our faculty and staff are committed to providing you with daily opportunities to stay close to God. After all, college is probably one of the many times you’ll depend on God the most.
Success during college . . . not just after
Sure, we might be one of many small Christian colleges, but we’ve certainly set ourselves apart by working to see that you’re successful along the way, not just once you graduate. Our goal has been and will continue to be to equip you with the tools you need to be successful now while you're in college. Bethel offers low student-to-teacher ratios, and each full-time student gets his or her own laptop computer.
You’ll get your own laptop computer!
Bethel was the first of all Tennessee colleges and universities to provide laptop computers to each of its full-time students. So no matter where you choose to study while here on our campus, you’ll always have the ability to work from a computer. Forget waiting in line at a lab or having to take up valuable space in your dorm room with a traditional computer set-up!
Location is everything!
Nestled among the quaint streets of McKenzie, Tennessee, Bethel offers open spaces, smiling faces and a serene setting that will allow you to focus only on the things that are most important to you! After all, who has time to sweat the small stuff that you deal with in metropolitan locales? Yet, at the same time we’ve made sure to provide you with some of the must-have amenities you’ll find in larger cities. You can even get fresh-brewed Starbucks coffee right on campus!
We work to make a private, Christian education affordable!
More than 95 percent of Bethel’s students receive some financial aid and/or scholarship money.
