About This School

Andrew College is a private nonprofit institution located in Cuthbert, Georgia with approximately 473 undergraduate students enrolled. The school is moderately selective, accepting approximately 46% of applicants. The average net price after financial aid is $21,823 per year.

Andrew College is a private liberal arts college in Cuthbert, Georgia. It is associated with The United Methodist Church and is the ninth-oldest college in Georgia. Andrew is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC).

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the relatively low median debt at graduation ($9,500) and modest net price are genuinely appealing, but a 27% graduation rate and 38% freshman retention rate signal that most students who start here don't finish — and that's a serious red flag worth examining before committing. Worth considering if you need an affordable, smaller environment and have a clear plan to stay on track, but be sure to ask hard questions about academic support and why so many students leave.
