While Montreat College races forward, its community maintains a sense of peace founded on an eternal God. Their foundations remain unchanged and unchangeable: by God's grace and provision, they continue to foster the integration of faith and learning, they concentrate on the development of a Christian worldview in the minds and hearts of students in every discipline and degree program, and they seek a relevant, dynamic engagement with the world.

The Mission of Montreat College is to be: "Christ-centered, Student-focused, Service-driven: Equipping agents of transformation, renewal, and reconciliation."
