Visit Campus

You can visit campus to see how Gardner-Webb’s mission to prepare you to make a difference for God and others’ lives is evident across campus. You can see that in the way we do our classes, ask students to participate in research or have students take the lead in service projects. See all our campus has to offer you from its spacious campus grounds, exciting division I athletics, and located in the beautiful foothills of North Carolina.
