Covenant College is a small, accredited four-year liberal arts college in Lookout Mountain, Georgia and affiliated with the Presbyterian Church in America. The campus includes a grand prohibition-era hotel and has a very dramatic view overlooking Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Founded in Pasadena, California in 1955, the school is distinctive among most other small Christian colleges because it is among the few that espouse decidedly Reformed theology. Offering associate of arts , bachelor of arts, bachelor of science, bachelor of music , and master of education degrees, and several pre-professional programs, Covenant also has an adult education program, Quest (established 1984).
In 2005 Covenant College celebrated its 50th anniversay.
The campus is the home of the Chalmers Center for Economic Development (established 1999).
The college's presidents have included Dr. Robert Rayburn (1955-1965), Dr. Marion Barnes (1965-1978), Dr. Martin Essenburg (1978-1987), Dr. Frank Brock (1987-2002), and Dr. Niel B. Nielson (2002- ).
