About Trevecca

Welcome to Trevecca

Founded in 1901 and located in Nashville, Tennessee, Trevecca Nazarene University is in its 107th year of providing Christian higher education. With a long and rich history, Trevecca is enjoying an exciting present and making plans for an even more exciting future.

Located only a few minutes from downtown Nashville, "Music City, U.S.A.," Trevecca offers students the best of two worlds--the advantages of a small-campus community set near the excitement and bustle of a metropolis. Trevecca's 2,300+ students are able to enjoy all that Nashville has to offer for those who want enrichment and/or recreation--a first-class art museum, an expanded/improved public library,  music venues, shopping, sports, and other attractions.
