About

Grove City College (GCC) is a private, conservative Christian liberal arts college in Grove City, Pennsylvania, United States. It was founded in 1876 as a normal school. The college emphasizes a humanities core curriculum. The college has always been formally non-denominational but in its first few decades its students and faculty were dominated by members of the Presbyterian Church to the extent that it was sometimes described as having a de facto Presbyterian affiliation; in more recent decades, it moved away from the Presbyterian Church.
