    From Kenyon College

    Why Kenyon? Besides the obvious reasons — top-notch faculty, talented students, stunning campus — the greatest advantage of choosing Kenyon is the promise that here, you’ll become the person you imagine yourself to be.

    That’s because no matter what you study at Kenyon — whether it’s the nature of gravity in the universe or the meaning of the graveyard scene in "Hamlet" — you will grapple with important questions that challenge you in an environment that nurtures and inspires you.

    But don’t take our word for it. Take a virtual stroll down Middle Path and talk with an admissions counselor, a student, a professor. Explore Kenyon's comprehensive financial aid packages. And, by all means, apply. It’s the first step toward discovering if Kenyon is the right place for you.

    Writing at Kenyon

    academic spotlight

    The ability to express yourself extends far beyond words on a page—and speaks volumes about drive and character. We know how to get to the heart of an idea. We seek data, we ask questions, we listen for nuance. We embrace the viewpoints of others, even when those views might clash with our own. We recognize that words have the power to illuminate and inspire, so we choose ours with intention.
