	C.L. Pearce Admission Counselor cpearce@belhaven.edu IM screen name: Belhaven_CL 1-800-960-5940 Last Names: B, Q, R, T, U, V, X, Y, Z The one thing I adore about Belhaven College the most is its kingdom approach to all of life. Both the staff and faculty are committed to a singular passion, which is glorifying God like He is being glorified in heaven. So, whether you are in the classroom setting, serving as an overseas missionary for the summer, interning at a local business, or hanging out with friends you are spurred on to do all these things for the name and fame of Christ Jesus. Another characteristic I absolutely love about the college is its vibrant community of national and international students giving the campus a unique feel with many different cultures in one locale. Combined with Belhaven College’s caring faculty and staff and its pursuit of excellence in education, many come for a degree and leave with these words ringing on their hearts: “to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think” (Eph. 3:20)!
	Danny Shaw Admission Counselor dshaw@belhaven.edu IM screen name: BelhavenDanny 1-800-960-5940 Last Names: C, D, F, G Trying to find the appropriate college is one of the large and looming questions of life, but this should not cause alarm. This question is common to many. From my own experience as a student, I can attest that Belhaven College is one of the best schools you can consider. Belhaven is a challenge; and yet the students and staff exhibit an affable, Christian spirit, while the faculty manage to combine scholarly, biblical insight with approachability. My job is to assist students in deciding whether Belhaven is suitable for them, keeping in mind the reassuring fact that human plans are always subservient to God’s plans.

	Julia Thompson Admission Counselor jthompson@belhaven.edu IM screen name: BelhavenJulia 1-800-960-5940 Last Names: L, M, N, O, P I came to Belhaven College pursuing a quality, Christian education, and I got that and so much more. During my time at Belhaven, I developed lasting relationships with students, faculty, and staff alike. The sincere love and concern for my educational, personal, and spiritual advancement astounded me. I had found a family. I was at home.
