Winshape College Program

Committing to Leadership, discipleship and SERVICE through a UNIQUE residential community

The WinShape College Program will offer you the opportunity to experience Berry’s long-held commitment to educate the “head, heart and hands” while equipping you and a group of likeminded students to understand your Christian faith, grow in discipleship and community, and lead in service — at Berry and beyond. While creating enduring friendships in a close, caring community, you’ll also find opportunities to serve locally by:

  • Providing meals for the Davies Homeless Shelter
  • Mentoring for the kids at the Boys and Girls Club in West Rome
  • Serving as a Young Life leader mentoring high school students

HOW DOES YOUR PARTICIPATION ADD VALUE TO A BERRY COLLEGE EDUCATION? 

You’ll benefit from the program while living on campus, preparing for your career or graduate school and pursuing personal and professional goals after graduation because of:

  • Transferable skills developed through leadership development and the planning, management and promotion of service projects on campus and in the community
  • A campus network of peers who provide valuable connections and support
  • A network of mentors, including WinShape staff, who will offer advice and write letters of recommendation during and after college

ARE YOU ELIGIBLE?

The WinShape College Program offers a merit-based award of $16,000 per year if you demonstrate the following: 

  • Commitment to discipleship
  • Proven leadership potential
  • A desire for Christian community

WHAT IS THE COMMITMENT ASKED OF YOU?

  • Join other first-year students to build a supportive network before arriving on campus
  • Live in dorms on Mountain Campus
  • Be an active part of a small discipleship group during your first two years
  • Focus on how your Community Impact Team will positively influence the community beyond Berry during years three and four
  • Have a positive effect on your community through team ministry as you progress through each year of college
  • Discover your individual giftings, strengths and passions alongside others in the program, culminating in a process of creating your own life purpose statement

"Having four years of dynamic experiences centered on community, discipleship and leadership, I am able to lead others in deeper relationships throughout both the workplace, and in various events and relationships I am a part of personally."
