Mars Hill College acknowledges the inter-relatedness of its academic program and its extracurricular activities and affirms the belief that learning takes place in all experiences of daily living, not just in the classroom. The Student Life program encompasses housing, student government, student activities, counseling, health care, orientation, student organizations, and campus police. Closely associated are intercollegiate and intramural athletics, food services, and the bookstore. In addition, the college's integrated academic and co-curricular program, the LifeWorks Learning Partnership, links the liberal arts education to life and work.

Mars Hill is a place where students are encouraged to integrate faith into their exploration of the world. The Chaplain’s Office serves as a resource in this regard. We sponsor weekly "Fellowship of Christian Athletes", “Crossroads” and "The Refuge" services, facilitate the workings of the Christian Student Movement, provide pastoral counseling and guidance to students, faculty, and staff, and relate externally to congregations and agencies supportive of our mission. In general, we seek to facilitate the religious dialogue on campus and meet the spiritual needs of the Mars Hill family.
