"We really love the genuine community at Covenant. This includes the students as well as the professors and staff that spiritually, socially, and academically nurture and challenge our daughter and sons to wrestle with real life issues and concepts thru a Biblical lens. And more importantly, developing a mindset and lifestyle of investing their lives in ventures with eternal impact and importance. The relationships and memories they will build here will have a lasting impact for the rest of their lives."

"The thing I say most to parents of potentially prospective students (after the money discussion) is 'Christ really is preeminent in all things' - classroom, hall life, high view of the Lord’s Day, emphasis on the church- that those aren’t just words on a sign, that our son is growing spiritually as well as relationally and academically."

"Our fondness for Covenant began as students. We love that it is a place where students are challenged to grow not only academically, but also spiritually. We saw practically how to live a biblical worldview that emphasizes Christ’s preeminence in all things. In a culture of compromise, the college has stood firmly on the foundation of biblical truth. Covenant fosters a deep sense of community; we have seen and can personally attest to the lifelong friendships that have been developed among like-minded young people."

"As parents we recognize that the nurturing of our students' souls is just as important as the gaining of marketable skills for their vocations. What we love most about Covenant College is that you will find that there’s a flourishing of the whole person happening here on campus both academically and spiritually. Here our students are taught to live well."
