Located in the foothills of the North Georgia mountains in Waleska, approximately one hour north of Atlanta, Reinhardt University is a private Methodist-affiliated institution established in 1883. The 525-acre wooded campus features a blend of historic and contemporary architecture, including the signature Burgess Administration Building, constructed in 1892. Reinhardt operates as a primarily residential campus with traditional dormitories and apartment-style housing options, while offering undergraduate programs across four academic schools, with notable strengths in business, education, and performing arts. The university competes in the NAIA's Appalachian Athletic Conference as the Reinhardt Eagles, with particularly competitive programs in football and women's volleyball.
