What parents say:

“We found that, in every aspect, from campus life to spiritual priorities, to intentional investment in the students by faculty and staff, Greenville University was a safe place for Caleb to be challenged and encouraged to become all that he had potential to be and do.” – Dave and Shelly Romoser, parents of Caleb Romoser.

“We never had to worry about our child’s safety at GU. The small college atmosphere was very reassuring to us. We also loved the small class sizes and the fact that our kids were more than just a number to professors. They developed friendships with many of their professors. We feel our kids could not have gotten a higher quality education than the ones they received at Greenville University.” – Ron and Lisa Menghini, parents of Denee Menghini.
