What Students Are Saying

I work in the admissions office, so I've seen many an application come through. We do offer scholarships and such but you have to keep your grades up and your GPA and shoot for a 950 or above on your SAT/ACT. You can become eligible for a LOT of scholorships then.

Also be sure if you haven't visited Catawba before to get a campus tour!

Tour Catawba before moving in so you are not lost on those first few days of orientation.
