At Shorter University, we are committed to our mission of Transforming Lives through Christ. We asked students to share their Shorter Story to help show what that looks like on a personal level.
Devin Wallace, Class of 2019
“Transferring to Shorter allowed me to get that push I needed in the right direction, to transform my life. I found out not who I am, but Whose I am. That has given me the peace and confidence to face today’s chaotic world.
“I initially wanted to work my way into a chief marketing officer role for a major company or become a sports marketer for a professional or collegiate team. However, I feel God might have a different plan for me. It could have something to do with teaching youth in churches. Stay tuned.”
Join us for Christmas on the Hill, the President’s Gala benefitting the Student Scholarship Fund, and hear more about how Shorter is Transforming Lives through Christ. This festive celebration will kick off the Christmas season on Thursday, December 6.
Jacee Guinn, Class of 2019
“I knew I could thrive in a small school environment. I also desired to be somewhere I could surround myself with people who love the Lord so I could grow spiritually. As soon as I stepped foot on Shorter’s campus, I knew it would meet those criteria. Without hesitation, I decided Shorter was the place I needed to be.
“I am so thankful for the Student Scholarship Fund. Had it not been for the incredible scholarship I received, I would not be at Shorter today. My scholarship truly is a testament to the abounding providence of God and how He loves us greatly.”

Jack Dodge, Class of 2018
“Being a student at Shorter means a lot to me. During my time here, I’ve learned I should give God the glory in all I do. It’s all about Him; it’s not about me.
“My gratitude for the Shorter Student Scholarship Fund is massive. Without the gracious gifts and support supplied by donors, I would not be able to attend Shorter University.”
