Belmont's beautiful, ante-bellum campus reflects a long, rich history that dates back to the nineteenth century, when the grounds were Adelicia Acklen's Belle Monte estate. University buildings that were erected over the past 110 years flank the Italiante mansion, which is still used by the campus and will be the site of the TAA Opening Reception. On the way to classes that prepare for the twenty-first century, students and summer workshop participants enjoy Victorian gardens, statuary, and gazebos that recall a treasured past.

Nationally recognized programs thrive on the Belmont University campus, which is located in the heart of the state capital, known both as Music City USA, and the Athens of the South (for its many educational institutions). Nashville offers big-city advantages with small town charm.

With an enrollment of approximately 4000 students, Belmont is the third-largest of Tennessee's thirty-five colleges and universities. In addition to the twenty-nine international countries represented in the student body, Belmont University attracts students from every state in the US. The culturally diverse institution is committed to listening and learning from everyone. Students of today are helping shape the way students of tomorrow will be educated.
