Attention Christian School Grads!

That’s right! We provide a $2,000 per year (distributed over 4 years) institutional scholarship just because you’ve graduated from a Christian school. We believe that all education should be Christian, and we’re ready to put our money where our mouth is when it comes to this firmly held conviction.

Just like the ACT and SAT, we also accept the CLT. Several of our friends in the Christian school and Classical school community have expressed the unique fit that the CLT provides, and we’re listening.

“Overwhelming” does not even begin to describe the feeling of walking into a lecture hall of 300 people on your first day of class. Not at Welch. Our student-to-faculty ratio is 9 to 1. That means you’re not a mere number; you’re not lost in a sea of faces. At Welch, you’re an individual with a name and you’ll receive personal attention from a faculty that wants you to thrive socially, academically, and spiritually. Your first-year classes will rarely have more than 40 students (class sizes capped at 49 students!), and your upper-level classes will often have just a handful. We also provide free tutoring for our students because we know that you may need a little boost as you transition into a different academic environment.

We’re not just Christian in name only—we are a Christian Christian college! Our faculty members are faithful followers of Christ who serve in their local churches. They will teach, affirm, and support your faith, not undermine it. Our extracurricular campus activities are wholesome and Christ-honoring. We have conduct expectations that provide guardrails for you (e.g. curfew for dorm students, church attendance requirement, dating expectations, campus dress/appearance guidelines). Also, our admissions requirements ensure that all students confess Christ as Savior. Truly, we are a Christian community of faith and learning.
