The University of Valley Forge (UVF) is a private university near Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, and 8.8 miles (14.2 km) from Valley Forge National Historical Park. It is affiliated with the Assemblies of God USA.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 56% graduation rate and 70% freshman retention suggest that a meaningful portion of students either leave or don't finish, which is worth taking seriously. With median earnings of just $34,300 a decade after enrollment, the $27,499 annual net price feels steep relative to long-term payoff. This school is worth considering primarily if you're specifically drawn to its Assemblies of God faith community and want a small, ministry-focused environment — secular or career-driven students would likely find better value elsewhere.
