THERE IS A PLAN HERE.

We call it The Berry Compact, and it ensures that you (and every other Berry student) follow a purposeful, four-year sequence of intellectual exploration, professional development and personal growth—while being challenged and encouraged by a community of devoted mentors. The result is an education that leaves you confident, prepared for career success and knowing why your chosen direction matters.

ONLY THE BEST

Our programs are rigorous and respected, preparing you with the knowledge, skills and flexibility you’ll need for professional and life success. Our faculty are gifted teachers/scholars who take a dynamic and discussion-based approach to teaching and mentorship. Our students (your future classmates and friends) are smart, ambitious and eager to collaborate.

YOU WILL BE PART OF THE ACTION.

Our professors are respected contributors to their disciplines, leading vital research and scholarship and inviting you to participate. Co-author a paper and present at a professional conference. Spend the summer on campus as a paid research assistant. Do an Honors research project, guided throughout by a faculty mentor. Your ideas and contributions are welcomed here—and valued.

MENTORSHIP MATTERS.

Today’s Berry is distinguished by a century of commitment to people investing in making each other better. From your first day in this community, you’ll be guided by faculty, staff, peers and alumni who will listen closely while challenging you to grow your character and use your gifts. Through these one-on-one relationships, you’ll build a personal network of mentors who will teach you, inspire you and cheer for you.

SEEK (GREATER) CHALLENGE.

Berry is a selective college, and all our courses are rigorous explorations that prepare you for success in the career of your choice. An additional challenge for our most motivated scholars, the Honors program creates special opportunities for experiential learning, advanced coursework, leadership development, cultural engagement and independent research.

KNOWLEDGE IS DEEPENED BY EXPERIENCE.

No matter your major or career destination, you will make use of what you’ve gained through hands-on learning. Every semester, our signature LifeWorks program gives you the opportunity to build invaluable skills and professional experience through paid, on-campus work; you’ll choose among more than 1,000 options across all of the college’s 180 departments.

EXTEND YOUR UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES

Berry’s respected graduate programs in business administration and education help heighten our excellence in these fields—and provide opportunities for you to elevate your undergraduate studies and expand your credentials.
