School Mission

(Data appear as originally submitted by this school)
Swarthmore is a highly selective college of liberal arts and engineering, located near Philadelphia and enrolling a student body of approximately 1, 500. Located on a 357-acre, nationally registered arboretum, Swarthmore is truly a college like no other. Swarthmore is private, yet open to all regardless of financial need; American, yet decidedly global in outlook and diversity, drawing students from around the world and all 50 states; small, yet with the financial strength to offer students and faculty generous resources to push their own and the world's understanding of disciplines from Arabic to plasma physics, from microbiology to dance, from engineering to art history. An institution that celebrates the life of the mind, Swarthmore gives students of uncommon intellectual ability the knowledge, insight, skills, and experience to become leaders for the common good.
