Washington College, Maryland’s premier small college, offers a rigorous academic program taught by remarkable faculty. With more than 50 academic programs and nationally recognized centers of excellence, Washington’s unique campus on the Eastern Shore—which features the 5,000-acre River and Field Campus—provides easy access to nearby urban centers.
Washington students take advantage of an array of opportunities that broaden their education and lead to successful careers. They engage in graduate-level research, participate service learning, and choose from among thousands of internship opportunities and a range of study abroad programs.
The focus is on academics, but we encourage students to get out and try new things. Washington’s residential campus has everything you expect from a top-rated college—more than 80 clubs and organizations, 20 intercollegiate athletic teams, 14 of which compete in NCAA Division III, as well as club and intramural sports, live theatre, dance, and music performances, leadership roles, volunteer opportunities and more.
The Washington College experience empowers and motivates students within a community committed to diversity and inclusion. The expansive opportunities in and out of the classroom combined with strong outcomes for Washington College graduates, offers students and their families an exceptional value.
