Where to Eat

Our campus is located in Arrington, Tennessee; just 25 minutes away from Franklin. Franklin, Tennessee is home to many lovely restaurants, independent shops, boutiques, and festival events with many things to do through out the year. We are also very close to Nashville, affectionately known as the "Music City", where you will often encounter original, live music in the local restaurants and gathering places. During your time with us, we recommend you bring your lunch; most restaurants are a 15 minute drive from our school and with a one hour lunch break, that will take half of your time. We have an oversize refrigerator, toaster oven and two microwaves in our dining area as well as an outside eating area and grill. Restaurants in Franklin and the Cool Springs area are open in the evenings and weekends as well, and students often go out and enjoy meals together.
