Located on 28,000 acres of fields, forests, lakes, and mountains near the city of Rome, GA, Berry is a selective liberal arts college of over 2,000 students that also offers graduate and undergraduate programs in business and teacher preparation.

Berry emphasizes a comprehensive educational program committed to high academic standards, Christian values, and practical work experience in a distinctive environment of natural beauty. The ultimate end of a Berry education is service to others.

Berry's uniqueness lies in the balance of mind, heart, and work within an educational program that engages our students in the world beyond classroom and the campus. Last year, Berry students contributed over 23,000 volunteer hours of community service in Rome, Floyd County, and beyond.
