Guilford College is a mid-sized higher education institution founded in 1837 and based in Greensboro, North Carolina. It emphasizes a student-centered, interdisciplinary approach that uses team-based projects to address real-world problems locally and globally. The college maintains small class sizes, averaging about 14 students per course, to support exploration across a range of majors and minors. It is recognized in a guide that highlights colleges with engaging, supportive, and challenging academic atmospheres. Guilford's Division III athletics teams, known as the Quakers, compete in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference, with both women's and men's programs across several sports. In March 2026, Guilford appointed Jerald Neely as Program Director for TRIO Student Support Services to lead a project to enhance the academic success and overall well-being of 140 students from traditionally underserved groups.
