CAMPUS SUMMARY
Founded in 1815, Allegheny College is known for academic quality and its personalized undergraduate program. The College's residential community and its many connections to the world foster social, intellectual, spiritual and professional growth among students.

A selective, private college of the liberal arts and sciences, Allegheny maintains its strong academic tradition while continually updating its curriculum to reflect a changing world. "Challenging," "open" and "active" are often used to describe the Allegheny experience.

Among the oldest one percent of colleges and universities in the country, Allegheny boasts one of the country's most attractive and historic campuses - with 38 buildings on a 72-acre central campus,a 182-acre recreation complex for outdoor athletics and a 382-acre environmental research reserve.


UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS
Learning at Allegheny is an active, hands-on process thanks to special teaching methods, classes that average 16 students, and emphasis on original research and innovative uses of computing. Strong advising that begins in the First Seminar, coupled with the many structured choices built into the curriculum, lets students hand-craft a four-year program to match their goals and needs. "Such personal attention, coupled with a broad required curriculum, virtually ensures a solid education" at Allegheny, notes The Insider's Guide to the Colleges.
