“The largest bit of advice I could give to any prospective students looking at coming to Emory & Henry for their higher education is that what they find here is decidedly different from what they may find at other institutions. The difference is in the people. The staff at Emory & Henry show genuine interest and hope in the success of their student body. The student body itself consists of countless groups of accepting individuals that will be sure to make anyone feel at home.”
