Some things never change.

A lot can happen over the course of nearly 150 years, and Grove City College’s rich history reflects that. But some things never change. The principles and values that the College was founded to advance – faithfulness, excellence, community, stewardship, and independence – are the same ones we hold fast to today, and our commitment to providing the best liberal arts and sciences education in the country is as strong now as it was in 1876.

Join a legacy of faith and freedom.

When 22-year-old Isaac Ketler founded Grove City College in 1876, he sought to establish an institution where young men and women could find their purpose through an excellent, Christ-centered education and “push civilization forward on every frontier.”

Today Ketler’s mission remains strong in a deep-rooted campus community where each student is valued as God’s image-bearer with a unique calling.

Here at Grove City, you will be empowered to pursue Truth freely without ideological barriers — a freedom we defended in an unprecedented U.S. Supreme Court Case.

You will also be equipped to thrive professionally and take your place among nearly 30,000 alumni whose career outcomes are among the best nationwide.
