LaGrange College

LaGrange College is called through the United Methodist Church to challenge the minds and inspire the souls of students by improving their creative, critical and communicative abilities in a caring and ethical community.

From its founding in 1831 as an all-women's academy to its current standing as a premier liberal arts college, LaGrange continues a proud and honored academic tradition.

But what makes LaGrange truly different? What makes this four-year liberal arts and sciences institution such a standout?

It all comes down to one word. Value.

LaGrange is one of the most affordable private colleges in the Southeast, It's true. But genuine value – the kind of value that prompts U.S. News & World Report -- year after year -- to rank LaGrange College as one of the South's top 10 comprehensive colleges and among that category's "best values," is not simply a result of fine classroom instruction. Or prime performance and athletic facilities. Or even forward-thinking administrative leadership.

No. We call the LaGrange experience a "360 degree education." Here, we equip each student with a strong liberal arts foundation and then build-on valuable skill sets. Top employers and graduate schools choose LaGrange graduates because they learn fast, they know how to problem-solve and they understand teamwork.

Because LaGrange is a small campus community, it's easy to get involved in your choice of clubs and organizations. No experience required! Choose from 40+ student groups, or participate in service efforts, as nearly all our students do.

Looking for something to do? You won't have to look far! We're always planning something—from dances to dive-in movies viewed from our on-campus pool. You can also check out our athletic programs (as a starter or a spectator). And don't miss the musicians, comedians, hypnotists, magicians and lecturers who visit campus regularly.
