The Abbey surrounded me with a prayerful, loving and welcoming environment while providing me with an education that will take me through life. I couldn’t have asked for more from a college.

Program Info

Belmont Abbey's Education graduates are heavily recruited for career teaching positions because of the Elementary Education program's well-known reputation for quality and excellence. One distinction of our Elementary Education bachelor's degree is class size: students study in a close-knit cohort of no more than 20 classmates who complete their entire professional sequence (licensure program) together.

The merit of a highly-individualized environment can be recognized in the quality of learning and application, reflected in the fact that many Elementary Education BA graduates from Belmont Abbey College are hired as teachers during the student teaching experience or shortly following graduation.

Additionally, for more than three decades, the Abbey's Elementary Licensure Program has maintained a strong reputation with regional and non-regional schools for graduating teachers who are outstanding classroom leaders.
