Hannibal–LaGrange University (HLGU), formerly Hannibal–LaGrange College, is a private Christian university in Hannibal, Missouri, United States. It is affiliated with the Missouri Baptist Convention, which is part of the Southern Baptist Convention. As of 2022, 494 students are enrolled, and 29 majors are offered. The university is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 44% graduation rate means fewer than half of students who start actually finish, which is a real concern worth pressing the school on before committing. On the positive side, debt at graduation is relatively modest at $13,688, and the small enrollment of 381 undergrads means you're likely to get personal attention rather than getting lost in a crowd. Worth considering if you're drawn to a faith-based community and need affordability, but have an honest conversation about what support systems exist to help students reach graduation day.
