Mission  
School mission: Ohio Valley University is a liberal arts college located between the cities of Parkersburg and Vienna. A student centered college, Ohio Valley University strives to transform lives in a Christ-centered academic community that integrates higher learning, biblical faith, and service to God and humanity. Warm friendly faces and a down-to-earth atmosphere are the basic ingredients of the college culture. Challenging academic programs are offered in a variety of associate and baccalaureate degree programs and tracks that are designed for traditional learners, including accounting, Bible, business administration, business management, Christian counseling, elementary education, human resource management, liberal studies, marketing, organizational management, psychology, secondary education, and vocational ministry. At Ohio Valley University, every student is challenged to think critically, improve communication skills, and broaden his or her knowledge base. Those goals are driven by small class sizes and one-on-one relationships with faculty, staff and other students.
