The Tennessee College Scene - An Exclusive U.S. College Search Report

Tennessee is an interesting and diverse state. You'll find plenty of large cities here, like Knoxville in the east, Nashville in the center of the state, the Memphis to the west. Renowned for its role in country and other traditional forms of 20th century American music, Tennessee is the perfect place for the music lover. Students, however, will also find plenty to do outside of the cities, thanks to the lovely Appalachian Mountains, long rivers like the Cumberland, Tennessee, and Arkansas, and plenty of state parks and forests providing a variety of outdoor recreational activities.

The University of Tennessee in Knoxville is often found among lists of top tier public universities. The college boasts of an enrollment of about 25,000 students, who can select courses from UT's schools of Agricultural Science, Architecture and Design, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Communication, Education, Engineering, Law, Nursing, Social Work, and Veterinary Medicine. Additional UT campuses are found in Chattanooga, Martin, and Memphis.

Tennessee also boasts a number of private colleges, some rather small, including the Catholic Christian Brothers University, located in Memphis and offering 25 different majors in their schools of Liberal Arts, Business, Sciences, and Engineering; Belmont College in Nashville, the largest Christian University in Tennessee; and King College in Bristol, a Presbyterian institution that offers more than 80 majors, minors, and pre-professional degrees.
