REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingReinhardt University is home to those who seek knowledge. The classes, well most of the classes, challenge one to obtain such an understanding and challenge all to do well in life. I have yet to have a terrible experience in any of my classes. Really all I can say is: If you wish to have a higher education, to learn from those who care about your learning experience, then please look at Reinhardt. If you want to be invisible, this is not the school for you.
Jessica from Trenton, GA
All of the professors are willing to assist their students in any way possible. They are also very friendly, and since this is a small school the class sizes allow the professors the chance to help out students individually while allowing them to get to know them as well making it much easier to understand difficult subjects.
Carrie from Loganville, GA
I admire the personal one on one experience with the professors. the campus is absolutely gorgeous. There are so many different degrees to choose from.
Gerald from Adairsville, GA
You will get out of Reinhardt University exactly what you put into it. There are plenty of sports, clubs, and campus activities to keep you entertained. The class sizes are generally small, about 20 people on average, which provides a much better learning experience.
Ryan from Canton, GA
At Reinhardt College I am learning a lot because my classes are small. The class sizes are about 25 people for general core classes. I am also making many friends because of the small campus.
