Covenant College on the Rise
By Faith Magazine, the magazine published by the Presbyterian Church in America (P.C.A) reports that Covenant College was ranked #7 by U.S. News and World Report:
U.S. News & World Report, in its 2008 edition of “America’s Best Colleges,” ranks Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia, number seven among baccalaureate colleges in the South. This ranking is up from Covenant’s number nine rank in 2007, and represents Covenant’s fifth consecutive year with a position in the top 10 colleges in its field. Covenant College continues to have the fourth highest graduation rate among baccalaureate colleges in the South.
“We are pleased,” said Covenant College President Niel Nielson, “that the U.S. News & World Report rankings recognize the strength and value of a Covenant College education. Covenant is blessed: we are expecting another year of record enrollment, a new residence hall opened for students this year, and construction is progressing on a new academic building.”
