Multiple experiential learning options offer international study, research projects with faculty, and concentrated studies in a wide variety of fields.

Erskine grads engage the world in significant and meaningful ways. Take Corey Emanuel Chapman, an Erskine alum who has dedicated himself to improving the lives of children – and whole communities – through multimedia such as television, film, print, and the Internet.

Corey’s passion for education has taken him from the halls of Erskine to the streets of New York City, where he was an editorial trainee under the leadership of CNN’s Soledad O’Brien and went on to earn a master’s degree in Communication and Education from Columbia University’s Teachers College.

Now, he pursues a career producing educational and commercial programming. He is also the author of the children’s book entitled Can I Be President, Too? The Journey of Henry Hopeful. “For me,” Corey says, “it’s not all about the glitz and glamor of television; it’s about being able to use media to transform people’s lives.” His dream job is to work on Reading Rainbow 2.0.

Corey is known for his passion for quality educational programming. How will you be known?

Erskine lays a foundation of learning and experience for any endeavor. Our calling is to help guide you toward yours – and prepare you to pursue it well. More than simply educating you to be a competent professional, Erskine equips you to flourish intellectually, spiritually, and socially. To be all you were created to be.

Most qualified students are able to enjoy the exceptional value of an Erskine education by combining federal and state assistance, generous merit-based scholarships, and wise financial planning.

In fact, more than 95% of students receive assistance through some blend of these sources. Last year alone, we were privileged to provide more than $10 million in scholarships.

Our fifteen intercollegiate teams compete in NCAA Division II as part of Conference Carolinas. To support these programs, we maintain fields, gyms, courts, and athletic facilities that also promote a healthy, active lifestyle for all students. Our diverse intramural and recreational programs provide competitive and fun athletic options for everyone.

Work with faculty to craft a course of study that suits your individual strengths and career interests from a wide variety of academic programs.

You may already know Erskine. You may not. Either way, here’s your chance to know us better – and why you might want us to know you.

Erskine College has been equipping young people to flourish in lives of learning, serving, and leading for nearly 175 years. Our rich heritage of thoughtful scholarship, spiritual devotion, and intentional community provides an academic experience that’s as distinctive as our students, faculty, and graduates.

Vibrantly AcademicNationally ranked among the best liberal arts colleges, our majors span the arts and sciences spectrum. No matter what you study, you’ll be personally challenged and profoundly inspired. You’ll work hard, think creatively and critically, explore options, and question assumptions across a variety of subjects.

Authentically ChristianWhat we learn and how we live are inseparable foundations for an excellent education. Erskine is committed to Christian authenticity that is intentional and pervasive, but never coercive. While we pursue knowledge, we seek grace and wisdom to answer the big questions.

Closely ConnectedOur small size means some big advantages! You’ll know almost everyone, especially your professors. And they’ll not only know you, they’ll probably know if you’re having a bad day and why.

Beautifully LocatedDue West of what? Not sure. But we do know that from tree-lined green spaces, gardens and gathering spots to stately architecture, comfortable hangouts,

and convenient wi-fi, our campus in Due West, South Carolina, is a great place to learn and live.

Intentionally ResidentialLiving on campus provides incredible opportunities for fellowship and leadership. In a community like this, you can’t fake it. Quality is revealed. Weaknesses are strengthened. Character is refined through meaningful relationships.

Distinctively YouCall it a custom-fit college experience. Call it hand-crafted higher education. At Erskine, your unique talents, interests, and contributions really matter. You help shape the experience for others, while they do the same for you.
