University of Mount Olive

At the University of Mount Olive, we believe in transformational education. Not only do we strive to cultivate a generation of intelligent, open-minded students with a strong liberal arts background — we recognize that it is just as important to teach our students values that will help them develop into positive, contributing members of society.

The University of Mount Olive is a Christian faith-based, values-centered private institution rooted in the liberal arts tradition. We serve our students, our founding church, and our communities.

The University of Mount Olive will exemplify lifelong learning and engaged participation among our students, faculty, staff, and constituents. To serve our students, our founding church, and the communities in which we are located, we will:

• Provide our students – regardless of age, location, or learning style – a high quality education rooted in the liberal arts and strengthened by Christian values
• Enrich and support the ministries of our founding church
• Customize innovative and beneficial services to each community in which we are located

• The following core values are fundamental to achieving our mission and vision and are articulated in our University Covenant:

• Honesty and Trustworthiness
• Justice and Courage
• Responsibility and Gratitude
• Caring and Respect
