“After junior college, I visited several states and cities in search of a school that was the right “fit” for me – a place to further my academic and athletic careers. Bethany stood out. I felt genuinely welcomed and wanted by the faculty, staff, coaches, and students. Also, almost all of my credits transferred.” Looking back, I am so thankful that I made the decision to attend Bethany. The education and experience-based learning opportunities made me ready for life after college, and more importantly, helped me find a career path that I’m passionate about. I’m now in graduate school studying to become a physician assistant, and I know that I wouldn’t be where I am today without the gift of my education at Bethany.” — Danielle Mashburn, Bethany College graduate 2007
