Millsaps College, the premier liberal arts college in Mississippi and the first school in the state to offer a Phil Beta Kappa chapter, today joined SAGE Tuition Rewards. Rated a “best buy” and a “best value” by independent college guides, Millsaps offers its 1,085 undergraduates – 60% from out-of-state -- a choice of 29 majors and 26 minors.

Located in the heart of Jackson, Mississippi’s state capital, Millsaps boasts a 1:12 faculty-to-student ratio, with an average class size of 15. Anthropology major Chelsi Amelia West, awarded her diploma this month, was selected for a Fulbright Fellowship for graduate study abroad in 2008-09.

Millsaps is the 11th SAGE member college to be featured in Loren Pope’s acclaimed book, Colleges That Change Lives. Founded in 1890, Millsaps has already raised $100 million toward a capital campaign goal of $160 million -- dedicated to increased student scholarships, faculty resources, innovative programs and enhanced facilities. Affiliated with the United Methodist Church, Millsaps offers a Faith & Work Initiative committed to the development of critical moral reasoning and social responsibility.

Millsaps becomes our first college in the state of Mississippi, giving Tuition Rewards a presence in 34 states.
