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.

Seth Countess
Seth Countess, a finance major from Shelbyville, Tennessee, says he’s built some of the closest and best relationships of his life since coming to Lee. “I knew Lee was the right fit for me the day I toured campus.” He is a peer leader, a member of Tau Kappa Omega, and on the leadership team for Backyard Ministries, one of the more than 100 clubs on Lee’s campus. “Getting to impact kids through Backyard Ministries is a highlight of my Lee experience.” Upon graduation, Seth plans to either be a Certified Financial Planner or work for a non-profit organization.
