RHODES COLLEGE
Rhodes College occupies a 100-acre semi-wooded campus in an historic neighborhood near downtown Memphis, offering both an idyllic residential learning environment and the vitality of a growing urban center.
Founded in 1848, Rhodes aspires to graduate students with a passion for lifelong learning, compassion for others and the ability to translate academic study and personal concern into effective leadership and action in their communities and the world. Our emphasis on service and integrity is rooted in our Presbyterian heritage.
Our four-year liberal arts education combines the best of the classroom and community-based learning. We involve our students in the larger Rhodes and Memphis communities through a variety of intellectual, service, social and cultural opportunities. Our students study, play and serve others with a determination to grow personally and to improve the quality of life within their communities.
Location: 10 minutes east of downtown Memphis in the heart of Midtown
Enrollment: 1,673 enrolled students from 46 states, the District of Columbia and 13 foreign countries
Other interesting tidbits: The Memphis barbecue is REALLY that good!
