Advice for incoming students: Do not close a door based on financial need until you get an award letter because you never know how God can provide.
Why did you choose TFC? I chose Toccoa Falls College because of the community on campus. My older sister went to Toccoa a year before I did. I saw what an amazing community she found as well as growth and healing in her own life and I knew that I wanted the same thing in my own life. When I came to Toccoa Falls College, I found an authentic group of friends that I was not only able to have a good time with but also be challenged spiritually by. This time here has been used by God to challenge and adjust my perspective on my walk with Him and “to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:18-19).”
I am grateful for my time here because of the friendships and memories that have been made while here! I cannot express how unique and wonderful the community is on this campus.

Tahd Adams, Admissions Counselor

Year: Freshman
Major: Ministry Leadership
Why did you choose TFC? I chose Toccoa Falls College for three big reasons.
The first reason is because I knew that this college would thoroughly prepare me for the future that I believe that God has for me. My ultimate goal in life is to go to New Zealand and begin my own church there. I am not sure why, I just believe that is God’s calling on my life.
I also specifically believe that God has a specific calling for me to be here over anywhere else and every day that I have been here has only proven that fact.
Finally, I chose Toccoa Falls College because I have never met nor spoke to people who legitimately cared about me more than the people here care about me. They will do so much just to get you here comfortably and provide a community that is healthy and pure so that your walk with God is not easily corrupted. I have seen too many other schools destroy peoples’ walks with God. All this school has ever done is better my walk with God and I love it!
