Today, we're bringing you a warm southern welcome from Huntington College, a private four year, liberal arts school, affiliated with a Methodist church. Huntington College is located in the historic city of Montgomery, Alabama, which is the state capital and very well known for its history, from Civil War to Civil Rights.

 Students when they come to Huntington, they participate in something that we call levelized tuition. Levelized tuition means that what students start paying their freshman year of college is going to be the same tuition rate that they're locked in for all four years that they go to school here. So no tuition increases from year to year when you come to Huntington College. 

 Huntington College offers bachelor of arts degrees in more than 30 areas. Students also have access to nine major professional programs. In fact, 88 percent of graduates who've applied are accepted into medical school, and 96 percent into law school.

 The labs that are really cool for most of the students are things like the zoology labs, where they get to do the dissection and work with skeletons and things like that.
