North Greenville University

Located in Tigerville, South Carolina, in the beautiful Mountain Bridge Wilderness Area between South Carolina and North Carolina, North Greenville University is a private Baptist school. The university offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees to its 2,500 students. North Greenville University is associated with the South Carolina Baptist Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention and accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

North Greenville University is the most interesting thing to be found in the small town of Tigerville—the town itself has about 1,500 residents, not including university students—but even then, students may find good reason to give it a pass. In order to get a degree, students have to be willing to take on the burden of a -$62,100 return on investment after 20 years. This is largely due to high tuition costs—$32,000 a year—and slim chances of getting a job after graduation.
