Bryn Mawr College is a private, residential liberal arts college located just outside the city of Philadelphia. One of the original Seven Sisters, we're proud of our continued identity as a women's college and of our close-knit community of 1400 undergraduate students, which is marked by mutual uplift, dynamic thought and expansive horizons.

On our stunning campus, students hone their intellect in small classes, learn from every angle and frequently apply their knowledge to scenarios outside the classroom through research and experiential learning opportunities. Our students have access to additional academic, co-curricular and social opportunities through our partnerships with nearby Haverford College, Swarthmore College, and the University of Pennsylvania.
