- Mission
- Situated on 210 beautifully landscaped acres in the heart of North Carolina's Piedmont Triad, High Point University combines the warmth and intimacy of a small liberal arts college with the academic offerings and amenities of a large state university. With over 3,000 students representing 41 states and 50 countries, the High Point University student body is both diverse and dynamic. Most classes have enrollments of less than 20, allowing students to interact with instructors who are well-trained career teachers, not graduate assistants. Students may earn academic credit by participating in internships or by traveling abroad and studying in such locations as Australia, England, Mexico, Scotland, and China. High Point University also offers 14 NCAA Division I athletic programs and numerous extra-curricular opportunities, and is one of only 100 colleges and universities nationwide to be named to the Templeton Foundation's Honor Roll for Character-Building Colleges.
