An evangelical Christian college, Patrick Henry College (PHC) emphasizes its students’ spiritual development as much as their academic development. College life at PHC is permeated by Christian fellowship, with service and outreach opportunities, Christian study groups and chapel services three times a week.
PHC’s academics take full advantage of
the college’s proximity to Washington, DC. Patrick Henry’s curriculum fuses classroom instruction with practical experience in the nation’s capital. Journalism majors might choose to intern with a newspaper, while Government majors can gain on-the-job experience in congressional offices and government agencies.
Most institutional financial aid at PHC is based on merit. Some programs, like the Patrick Henry Scholarship, are awarded based on your admissions application, while others, like the Samuel Adams Scholarship for Journalism, requires a separate scholarship application. Some need-based scholarships are available, as well as federal assistance.
To apply to Patrick Henry College, you must submit official transcripts and standardized test scores with your completed application. The school also requires two admissions essays and two references: one from a teacher, and one from a pastor. A $20 fee is required, but applicants who select the Early Action option can apply for free.
