Campus Life
Although married student housing is not available on campus, each residence hall offers 24-hour security, cable TV, telephone service, Internet connections, laundry facilities, and resident advisors on each floor. We also have an 18-hole golf course on campus, tennis courts, a football stadium surrounded by a running track, a soccer complex, "beach" volleyball courts, a gym with state-of-the-art equipment, a nature trail, and much more. There are student activities to attend, over 60 clubs on campus, and several forms of entertainment scheduled each semester. This schedule features comedians, movies, and magicians. Additionally, there are many other activities to enjoy around the Fayetteville area. As an added benefit, Methodist University has police and security officers on patrol 24 hours a day to ensure your personal safety. The officers provide services such as motor vehicle assistance, lost and found, crime prevention, and a student escort service. A security guard is also posted at the main entrance of the school 24 hours a day, and all residence halls are continuously locked. We provide a safe environment so that all you have to worry about are your studies. Methodist University is in North Carolina's fourth largest metropolitan area, is two hours from the coast, is not far from the Great Smoky Mountains, and is in the heart of America's golf country. Athletics School Challenge One of the advantages of choosing a college in the U.S. is that it can provide you with the benefit of modern academic programs and facilities that will better prepare you for your career. Methodist University is always expanding to accommodate its students' needs. Seven new academic and administrative buildings have been built in the last four years, all of which contain state-of-the-art computer systems. Our nationally recognized Computer Assisted Composition Lab (CAC) is where you can fine-tune English writing skills. The CAC is only one of seven modern computer centers located on our campus. These computer centers provide automated services and Internet access. Internet access is also available in all dormitory rooms. Because of the unique challenges you face as an international student, it helps to attend a small college where you can receive the attention you need, when you need it. Sometimes in larger colleges, you may be treated only as a number. At Methodist University, the classes are small with a 16:1 student-professor ratio. This means you will benefit from a close, one-on-one relationship with your professors. They will get to know you by your first name, and you will be able to look to them for guidance throughout your career at Methodist University. You will also have more than 50 areas of study to choose from and an advisor to help you with one of the most important decisions of your life. We know that language and cultural differences can make studies more challenging. To help you meet those challenges, Methodist University provides valuable support sources to help enhance your academic experience. Some of these are the Tutoring Center, The English Language Instruction Lab (ESL), and the English Writing Center. The Tutoring Center provides professional tutors as well as a complete library of computer tutorials, instructional videos, and other learning aids. The ESL and English writing lab are here to assist students who wish to improve their English skills in reading, writing, and speech. |
