I know from personal experience how vexing, even overwhelming, the college search process can be. Like you are now, I have visited campuses and reviewed information trying to determine which institution will be the best fit for my children and prepare them for a successful future. Also like you, I have asked the question, “How do I find the college that will both challenge and support my child during her/his undergraduate tenure?”

To answer that question, I recommend you review all colleges from the perspective of their academic programs, campus facilities, co-curricular life, and net price (cost minus financial aid award). After you have done so, I think you will find that Alderson-Broaddus College provides an exceptional experience that you will be confident in selecting.

Here at A-B, we are a national leader in the health sciences, with strong programs in business, computer science, education, liberal arts, and music. For three years running, we have been recognized as a “top tier” regional college (South) by “U.S. News” in their annual “America’s Best Colleges”.

Our 130-acre campus provides excellent facilities with a new science center, cadaver lab, campus-wide Internet access, and renovated residences halls and Chapel. We have over 65 campus clubs and organizations and compete in NCAA II athletics.

Because we know access and affordability are important issues for you, we tailor financial aid to your specific situation, helping ensure that the cost is affordable and similar to the cost of attending area public universities.

Our campus provides a truly family-oriented culture. A recent, independent report by the Higher Learning Commission (North Central Association), indicated, “The faculty and staff of Alderson-Broaddus College passionately embrace the needs of their students and provide transformational and life-changing experiences for their students.”

I would like to personally invite you to come up and visit with us on the mountaintop. Come see first hand how A-B is “Creating Success in a Caring Community,” and we hope your son or daughter will be a part of our family very soon.

Yours truly,
Stephen E. Markwood
President, Alderson-Broaddus College
