The TU Experience
“What stands out about the TU experience is the level of involvement the faculty offers the student. It is not unusual for students to have the professors’ personal cell phone numbers. I felt I could always get answers to my questions or concerns.”

As a small community-based college in South Georgia, Thomas University (TU) offers students the opportunity to seek intellectual pursuits in a supportive, personalized environment. With a faculty to student ratio of 10:1, the learning process is highly interactive. Students are challenged by faculty and a rigorous intellectual pursuit.
Our faculty members are valued for their professional excellence and expertise both in teaching and in their disciplines. All TU faculty strive for teaching excellence, scholarly and professional achievement and service to the study body, university and wider community.
While largely a commuter campus, TU offers students the opportunity to connect with campus life and with the community at large. Campus activities embrace the city of Thomasville and Thomas County. In spring 2009, TU extended its campus to downtown Thomasville with programs for local high school and middle school students.
Many of our students bring the community to us. Our student body includes local professionals returning to college to further their careers. They often bring real world applications to the academic exchange.
Our students are ethnically diverse, regional and international, members of our community’s workforce at all levels who choose to pursue educational goals. They inspire us with their dedication, discoveries in learning, and achievements.
TU is a private university committed to students’ personal and professional transformation.
