Covenant is very Christ centered. It's very small, but that means that you have the opportunity to build relationships with your professors. The people are in general very friendly and quirky.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Compared to other Christian Colleges, Covenant is well balanced between legalistic and nominally Christian colleges in the way it deals with dorm life and classes. It's focus is on Christ, but it certainly doesn't get in the way of teaching what you need to know about science, history, etc. It also isn't too strict about how students live their lives, but it does expect a certain level of responsibility from you.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The classes are tough, but a lot of fun. I can't compare it to other colleges from my own experience, but Covenant students place very well on standardized exams.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life is a lot of fun, and very uplifting. You can build very close friends on your halls, and hall community is very close.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
For cafeteria food, it's really not that bad. It can get kind of repetitive, but you can find a way to eat healthily most of the time. The students love to complain about it, but it gives us something to do.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are many organizations that are open for good times. All throughout the semester, your hall plans events. Chattanooga has a number of fun things to do for very little money.
