Location, Location, Location! McKendree’s location is a blend of the rural and the urban. The 100-acre Lebanon campus is within 25 minutes of downtown St. Louis to the west and equally close to the popular Carlyle Lake to the east! McKendree students get the best of both worlds: the serenity and security of a small town – and the advantages of a large metropolitan area – career opportunities, cultural events and institutions, shopping, professional sports, and entertainment.

Experience it today by scheduling your campus visit online or by contacting our office at 618-537-6831.
