Virtual Events
Join us for a one-hour virtual presentation about our program. Our recruiting team will give you an overview, you’ll hear from a graduate or student, and there will be time to ask questions. Neither of these dates work for you? Give our admissions team a shout at admissions@theexcelcollege.com and we’ll set up a time!

Where We
LIVE
Students live in homes at Excel in Black Mountain, North Carolina amidst a thriving community of believers seeking to live and love like Jesus. On warm evenings, students are often found studying in rocking chairs on the quiet, covered front porches of the houses, building a bonfire, or hiking nearby Kitazuma Trail to watch the sunset.

Where We
EAT
Some of the most meaningful conversations happen when breaking bread together. At Excel College, our students cook and eat together around a dinner table. Not only is cooking and eating together another way to build connection, but it is often healthier and more cost-effective than other dining options.

Where We
EXPLORE
Excel College is set in the midst of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. Waterfalls, rhododendron–filled forests, and expansive mountain vistas surround our campus. Here, our students can retreat from distraction and explore God’s creation right out their back door. We are located in Black Mountain, a charming mountain town filled with quiet cafe’s, eclectic restaurants, robust tourism, and an “everybody knows everybody” feel. Also, our community is within 15 minutes of Asheville, a city known for its music, food, and mountain culture, sought out by artists and adventure-seekers alike.
