“Regent prepared me for steps I needed to take to start a business, as well as to lead one.”

Hunter Davis, J.D., 2013

“When I came to Regent, it was really out of a place of what I call vocational desperation. I had a degree in theology, but a strong sense of calling toward film. Regent helped me sort out my future and set me on a path I never dreamed of before. Now, I'm a teacher and a filmmaker. ”

Joshua Overbay, MFA, 2010 Filmmaker

“I chose Regent because of its Christian principles as I wanted to learn how to integrate my faith with telling stories; also because of its amazing film program and facilities. Yes, my expectations were definitely met.”

Michelle Bello, M.A., 2011 Cinema Arts/Television, Directing

“We were taught practical skills for the workplace in Regent's classroom. Now I can see how they work in a professional environment.”

Ryan Clemens, MFA, 2010 Acting

“When I think about Regent, I think about the wonderful people I've met here that have supported and loved me with the love of Christ, and that have helped me make this a home away from my home in Guatemala.”

Elisa Sosa, B.A., 2019 Animation
