At this point in your college search process, you may have begun to receive acceptance letters from colleges and universities. As decision day draws near, we recommend a holistic approach when choosing which college to attend. Although academics are the main factor, it is also important to research what kind of support and services a college will offer you. In today’s blog, we review just some of the services that will be accessible to you as a Meredith student.
With over 100 clubs and organizations, Meredith offers an array of opportunities for you to build relationships, gain experience, and have an impact on your new community. You can join cultural, service, religious, professional, and performing arts organizations, as well as honor societies and student government. There truly is something for everyone!

All services are free and confidential.
At Meredith, we understand each student comes to college with a unique background and experiences.
