    The atmosphere is so welcoming and enjoyable. The students and staff are extremely nice.
    Bang for the buck

    Toccoa Falls College is the best college decision I could have made. The campus is small, the professors really care about their students, and the emphasis is overtly Christ-centered. It offers all kinds of majors and includes men's and women's soccer and basketball, as well as women's volleyball and men's baseball.
    Tips for prospective students

    1. Live on campus if at all possible.

    2. Don't be shy. People here are super friendly, and friends are essential to the college experience.

    3. Go to the baseball and basketball games and the school plays. There are plenty of people to meet.

    4. Chapel is great. Just don't get behind on chapel credits.

    5. Get plugged in to a Barnabas group and a student ministry.
    Academic Rigor

    Like anywhere else, some of the professors are easy while others are very difficult. As you move deeper into your major, the work becomes much more rigorous.
    Dorm Life

    Dorm life is one of my favorite parts of TFC. Living on campus and in the dorms allows me to become a part of the community here and to make great friends. Most of us know how to enjoy life and have fun without breaking the law.
    Food and Dining

    One of the downsides to TFC is the food. Some of the food is great while some of it is terrible. There are a couple different meal plans to choose from, so please do not choose the 21 meals per week plan.
    What to do for fun

    There are plenty of groups to join on campus (i.e. outdoor club, ministry clubs). There are also events to participate in throughout the week and on the weekends.
    Bang for the buck

    This school is the cheapest one that I looked at when I was searching for a college. It is a very old campus, so some of the buildings and the food quality are lacking.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    The waterfall is the biggest on-campus attraction. We are always having tourists drop by to take a hike and enjoy the view.
    Clubs and Activities

    The clubs and activities are good because the campus is so small. This school involves a small community in which you can really get to know and enjoy one another.
    Greek Life

    Non-existent, as far as I know.
    Campus Safety

    Very few problems with safety on campus.

    Toccoa Falls a christian school that has a wonderful campus and beautiful waterfalls. At Toccoa, we are able to graduate with a bible minor and achieve the goals of gaining the tools for the career we would like to pursue.
    Tips for prospective students

    At Toccoa, you will be attending 48 chapels a semester and will gain an immense amount of knowledge about the bible. It is best to remember that you will be eating campus food so you might want to prepare for the everyday meals we are provided.
    Academic Rigor

    I think the academics at Toccoa are great. The teachers are very caring and are always there to help.
    Dorm Life

    Dorm life is very family oriented. You will be able to meet so many new people and gain friendships that will last a life time.
    Food and Dining

    I am not a fan of the food, but they are trying hard to come up with new ideas to incorporate a better variety that would meet all the students dietary needs.
    What to do for fun

    At Toccoa, the most fun thing to do is go hiking or visit the waterfall. Outdoor activities are the main attraction here in Toccoa, but it is so beautiful and a great joy to be able to encounter everyday.
    Bang for the buck

    Toccoa is a wonderful school for learning and will help you grow in your spiritual walk with Christ. Yes, it may seem expensive, but compared to other private schools, it is not that bad.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    There is a little waterfall that everyone likes to go to. It is about a 10 minute hike, but the view is so beautiful and peaceful.
    Great for these types of students

    If you love the Lord and the outdoors, than Toccoa is the place for you.
    Clubs and Activities

    The clubs and activities are fun and active. We usually got something going on every week here on campus that get all the students involved.
    Greek Life

    We do not have any Greek life clubs.
    Campus Safety

    We have security walking around all hours of the day and we have a guard shack that keeps an eye on anything suspicious.

    toccoa falls college is a private christian college in northeast ga. tfc holds academic excellence, spiritual growth, and relationships as the important aspects to mature in. students will find various opportunities to grow spiritually, academically and relationally as they pursue their degree.
    Tips for prospective students

    if you are planning to visit the campus take you application with you and they will waive the application fee.
    ask questions about all the fields of study, not just the one you may be interested in.
    don't take the yearly tuition number as the final amount. go through the list of tuition expenses and determine how much you will need. a lot of times they will tack on miscellaneous costs that you may not need.
    Academic Rigor

    professors at tfc want to make sure that you are getting it and often times will grade you according to what they think you can do rather than against the others in your class room. many departments have specific gpa requirements that you must maintain to stay in your major. however, professors are willing to work with you if you do not understand something or are not happy with your grades.
    Dorm Life

    freshman are required to live in dorms. the dorms at tfc are old however, they all have wireless internet and cable tv. upperclassmen live in apartment-style buildings called terraces. all halls and terraces plan and hold different events for their residents which may be anything from a trip to atlanta to a morning brunch.
    Food and Dining

    food services at tfc are provided by aramark. the food in the cafeteria requires creativity and patience. however, there is a small fast-food type place in the student commons that is slightly better. students have a variety of meal plans to choose from so that they have the option of forgoing aramark food altogether and cooking for themselves.
    What to do for fun

    various clubs at tfc plan and host events and trips such as the outdoor club or the drama club. tfc's campus is perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors as there are many hiking trails on campus as well as off and rock climbing 15 minutes away at currahee mountain. for those who prefer shopping buford, ga is 40 minutes away where the mall of ga is located as well as many other attractions. atlanta is only an hour away. the town of toccoa has many fast food options as well as a walmart, antique mall, and bookstore.
    Great for these types of students

    great for outdoorsy students or those wishing to persue a major in outdoor leadership and education.
    great for students who do not want to go to a large school.
    great for students wishing to persue a career as a missionary.
    Clubs and Activities

    outdoor club: hiking, backpacking, camping, rock climbing, white water rafting, various instructional clinics, caving, rental equipment etc.
    drama club: two plays a semester plus dinner plays
    philosophy club, student minority club, hmong student club, student ministry fellowship: weekly services, raises money for students doing internship overseas.
    Greek Life

    tfc does not have sororities or fraternities anymore.

    Toccoa's a great place to get away from the hurry and scurry of life and focus on God, fellowship, and academics. It's only 1.5 hours from Atlanta and an hour from Greenville, SC, so you can still get to civilization when you want it! Great professors, good fellowship, and a beautiful campus tucked into the foothills of the Appalachian mountains make this a great option for college.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be authentic. A lot of places will tell you to try to impress the school, but at Toccoa authenticity, sincerity, and integrity is valued. The school seeks to develop character with intellect, but character is the more important of the two.
    Academic Rigor

    I expected college to be more difficult. It's not necessarily easy, per say, but if you listen in class, take notes, turn in assignments on time, and study for your tests, you'll make A's or B+'s every time. The professors here are great (for the most part) and are very reasonable.
    Dorm Life

    Every dorm on campus is different. Underclassmen girls live in either Fant or LeTourneau Hall (both of which have their advantages and disadvantages) while guys live in Forrest Hall. Upperclassmen can choose to live in the Terraces and Cottages, which are smaller dorms. The cottages are actual houses - usually reserved for seniors only.
    Food and Dining

    I've had worse food, but I've also had better. Our food supplier is Aramark, and they have some really stellar food on occasion - especially good cultural food.. but for the most part it's pretty average.
    What to do for fun

    Toccoa is a small town, so there's not much of a social scene. I love hiking, so when I have spare time I hike EVERYWHERE. There are supposedly 14 waterfalls on the campus (a large part of the campus is woods; only 1/10 of it is buildings); I have found 5 of these waterfalls. So that's great if you like the outdoors. If you don't like the outdoors... well, we're only 40 minutes from Commerce, which has great shopping, 1.5 hours from Atlanta, which has EVERYTHING, 1 hour from Greenville if you don't like Atlanta, and 30 minutes from Helen, which is a precious german tourist attraction.
    Bang for the buck

    It's about $23,000 but the school does give you some nice scholarships. If you maintain a 3.5 or above, you'll get $7500 a year. There are several other scholarships that you can receive, and frankly, money's not a big deal for God so He will provide if He wants you here. That said, for the quality of teaching, it's not a bad price - and since its a small school, the professors all know you by name and care about your personal life. It's not uncommon for a professor to invite a class to his/her house for a cookout or movie.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Umm.. The only one I know about is that when students of the World Missions Department graduate, they walk across the stage barefoot - in reference to Romans 10:15 - And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, 'How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!'
    Great for these types of students

    Great for students who want a small, personal, atmosphere, like the outdoors, and want to authentically grow in their Christian walk.
    Clubs and Activities

    There are a few clubs on campus (Drama club is great! There's also a martial arts club, an outdoors club, I'm not really sure what else...). The best part, though, are the diverse student ministries.
    Greek Life

    HA! There is none. No greek here. Unless you're taking New Testament Greek, but.. I don't think that's what the review was getting at.
    Campus Safety

    The only safety issues are in the woods on and around the campus: we do have legit wildlife here. So watch out for bears and panthers if you're on a trail at dusk and dawn, and don't hike Dead Man's Trail at night alone. Other than that... occasionally this random guy will run around campus with a bigfoot mask.. but he's not really a safety threat.
