FHU Description

Freed-Hardeman University is a small, private Christian institution that offers the best aspects of a university and a liberal arts college. Since 1869, Freed-Hardeman has provided top-tier academics with a commitment to the Christian worldview.

Over 40 programs of study are available through FHU’s six academic divisions:

*Honors College
*Arts & Humanities
*Biblical Studies
*Business
*Education
*Sciences and Mathematics

Freed-Hardeman students benefit from small class sizes. Regardless of what you choose to study, you can expect to get the individualized attention of a private liberal arts college with the academic resources of a university.

Eligible FHU students may receive financial aid, and there are plenty of ways to help make college more affordable. In addition to government grants and loans, Freed-Hardeman offers academic, endowed, and departmental scholarships.

There’s also a work-study program, in which you can earn money toward your tuition by working part-time for the university.

Because Freed-Hardeman emphasizes the importance of community, student life is very social. The school has six long-standing “social clubs,” which are essentially FHU’s version of Greek life.
