White, EC\u2019s new interim president. \u201cOf course, our students contribute to the quality as well through their incredible accomplishments and outcomes. We will continue our quest for excellence in every area of endeavor open to us. I am so grateful to all who have contributed to our success.&#8221;<br \/>\nThis is also the third straight year for EC\u2019s total enrollment to be more than 800 students, which includes one of the largest groups of new full-time students at 270 and the highest number of all full-time students at 723.<br \/>\n\u201cBeyond our strong academic programs and our low student-teacher ratio, EC\u2019s friendly campus community is very affordable,\u201d says Wendy Vinson, EC\u2019s Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing. \u201cIt\u2019s an honor to be recognized along with other outstanding colleges and universities.&#8221;<br \/>\nThis is exciting and encouraging news as Emmanuel College remains focused on its mission as a Christ-centered college to integrate faith, learning and living for effective careers, scholarship and service.<br \/>\nRankings by <em>U.S. News and World Report<\/em> are considered to provide the most in-depth and complete rankings in higher education. They are based on evaluations of the top accredited four-year schools in the country and focus almost entirely on the undergraduate experience in a broad range of programs in the liberal arts fields.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","slim_seo":{"title":"Emmanuel College in Top 50 for Best Regional College - IPHC Discipleship Ministries","description":"* image courtesy of\u00a0 Emmanuel College For the third consecutive year, U.S. News &amp; World Report names Emmanuel College as tier one among private colleges and"},"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"_slim_seo_primary_term_category":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_post_tag":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4,1,3],"tags":[54,95],"class_list":["post-491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-discipleship-ministries","category-general","category-youth-ministries","tag-emmanuel-college","tag-iphc-colleges","entry"],"title_es":"","content_es":"","author_name":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4T9u2-7V","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":630,"url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/discipleship\/2014\/10\/06\/67th-annual-emmanuel-college-feast-of-ingathering-overview\/","url_meta":{"origin":491,"position":0},"title":"67th Annual Emmanuel College Feast of Ingathering Overview","author":"Kaleigh","date":"October 6, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"The 67th annual Feast of Ingathering for Emmanuel College took place this weekend, October 3-5, on the Emmanuel campus in Franklin Springs, GA.
