An Introduction to Sarah Lawrence College

A Deeper Education

Sarah Lawrence College has been an exemplar of progressive education since its founding in 1926. Only 30 minutes north of Midtown Manhattan, this private, coeducational college offers students a dynamic community of internationally renowned scholars, writers, scientists, and artists on a wooded campus that blends Tudor architecture and innovative, multipurpose facilities. Here, students pursue individualized courses of study, meet regularly with professors, and deeply explore their interests. As they do, they find meaning, direction, and an entrepreneurial spirit—not externally imposed, but emerging from their own intellectual and creative appetites.
