Eastern Mennonite University

Homeschoolers

"People don't know what to expect from us. They think we are shy and reclusive but most home-schoolers have a good sense of who they are and what they want out of life."
-Adria Leigh Arnold Chesterfield, Va.
Class of 2005
Aaron"As an aspiring physician, I researched medical schools across the country. I applied to EMU as well as nine other colleges. I had many exciting offers, but the only choice that I or my parents had peace about was EMU."
-- Aaron Trimble, homeschooler from Alaska.

Experience the "classroom" in a whole new way at EMU.

With an average of just 13 students for every professor, you'll be encouraged to turn the classroom into a collaborative experience.

Home-schooled students -- with their strong self-confidence, critical thinking skills and disciplined study habits -- make great contributions to campus life.

They are academic leaders and student life role models.

At EMU, a small Christian liberal arts college dedicated to Anabaptist and Mennonite values of peacebuilding and service, we are ready to help make the transition from home schooling to university life a smooth one for homeschoolers.

Admissions counselors are aware of the special advantage that homeschoolers bring to campus and are available to answer questions or concerns.
