A Top-Tier, Christ-Centered Experience

Welcome to Lee University, in scenic southeast Tennessee, where the Tennessee River carves through the Appalachian foothills. We offer well over 150 programs of study from associates to doctoral degrees, but our original focus – and still our mission more than a century later – is to create a safe but challenging environment in which our students can develop and prepare for a complex and demanding world.

Expect
Something
Great

We have a phrase around Lee, Expect Something Great. We think the college experience should be much more than just academic excellence. At Lee, we expect our students to experience transformational relationships with faculty, with other students, in campus life, and as they move into their calling.

Colby Davis

Colby Davis, from Chattanooga, Tennessee, is a member of Alpha Gamma Chi, one of many Greek service clubs on campus. After attending Lee Day in high school and seeing Lee had a strong ministry program, Colby knew he wanted to attend. He now majors in youth ministry, and it was through this program that he made many of his “lifelong friends.” Outside of Lee, Colby serves as a youth pastor at Mercy Ridge Church of God and loves every minute of it. He intends to remain at Mercy Ridge post-graduation and follow whatever path the Lord leads him.
