Grace College's top-tier ranking comes at a time when large numbers of prospective students are applying to the college. The campus is preparing to welcome an estimated 350 new full-time freshmen and transfer students at its new student registration Aug. 30. The new students come from 26 states and nine foreign countries. Fifteen of the new freshmen at Grace this fall graduated high school as valedictorians and five as salutatorians.
In recent years, Grace has continued to build on its strengths with programs such as the Millennial Scholars Academy, Orthopaedic Scholar Institute and Presidential Scholarship Competition. In addition, Grace provides students with increasing opportunities for community involvement and domestic and foreign ministries.

The college consists of four schools: the School of Arts and Sciences, School of Ministry Studies, School of Music and School of Adult and Community Education. Grace offers more than 50 undergraduate majors in its undergraduate departments.
The Grace Graduate Department of Counseling and Interpersonal Relations offers two master's degree programs. Master's and doctoral-level programs are offered by Grace Theological Seminary.
Last month, Grace also was recognized by The Princeton Review as one of the best colleges and universities in the Midwest. The New York City-based education services company selected Grace as one of the institutions it recommends in its "Best in the Midwest" section on its Web site feature, 2009 Best Colleges: Region by Region.
