How will YOU Choose a College?
It could be a difficult choice with more than 3,600 colleges in the U.S. The best way to decide is to visit the school you are considering. You're invited to spend the day at Greenville College and explore what we have to offer.

What could happen in a day?
Your visit will challenge you to think, allow you an opportunity to interact with our students and faculty, and most importantly, discover who Greenville is -- what makes us distinctive. Your most important decision -- are we a good fit for YOU?

Weekday Visits
The admissions office is open weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., except holidays. A visit will last 2-6 hours, and may include financial aid and housing information, a class visit, chapel, an admissions interview, a campus tour, a meal, and meeting with professors. Just call us at 1-800-345-4440 to confirm the best time for your visit. We'll be happy to make special arrangements for you.
