Area Information
If you want the best of both worlds—a small campus community with all of the advantages of a thriving metropolitan area—then Welch College is the place for you.
Welch College is located in Gallatin, TN a short drive north from Nashville, Tennessee, the home of at least 38 colleges, universities, and technical schools. This concentration of educational institutions gives the city the well-earned title, Athens of the South.” The city is also undergoing an unprecedented renaissance in several areas. The fine arts culture of Nashville will enable students to expand their knowledge in ways that complement the education they receive. The Tennessee Performing Arts Center, the Schermerhorn Symphony Center, and The Frist Center for the Visual Arts bring to the city a wide variety of refined music, drama, and art exhibitions. The music and recording industry are, of course, renowned worldwide.
