Reinhardt – La’Maya Matthew’s Destiny
La’Maya Matthew set her sights on Reinhardt University at a very young age. “When I was in 7th grade, we drove by Reinhardt. When I saw the campus, I said ‘I’m going there,’” she said. Years later, when the time came for college exploration, Matthew knew exactly where she wanted to go – Reinhardt University. “I feel like God definitely brought me here. He knew that this place was for me!”

Support our students!
"Reinhardt’s intimate community and classes have provided me with personal connections with my professors and peers that will benefit me greatly in my future endeavors as an educator. I’m very fortunate to be able to attend Reinhardt, and I wouldn’t be able to do so without the support of scholarships."
