Gettysburg College has earned its strong academic reputation. Since its founding in 1832, the College has upheld a rigorous commitment to the liberal arts in all their breadth and depth. \r\n\r\nOn a beautiful campus in a world-famous town, 2,600 students discover their intellectual passion through more than 64 academic programs – from Environmental Studies to Globalization Studies to Civil War Era Studies. \r\n\r\nThere are no bystanders here. Students prepare for leadership through experiential learning opportunities, an extensive career network, and countless co-curricular, service, and off-campus study activities. \r\n\r\nAccessible professors: 10 to 1 student-faculty ratio; average class size of 18. \r\nAcademic clout: Our students come from more than 40 states and 35 countries. Recent grads earned Rhodes, Fulbright, and many other prestigious fellowships. \r\n\r\nCareer connections: A four-year career prep program and international alumni network lead to internships, externships, and careers. One year out, 95 percent of graduates are on a career track or in graduate school. \r\n\r\nSmall campus feel, big campus resources: music conservatory, professional performing arts center, state-of-the-art science center, Eisenhower public policy institute, and brand-new Center for Athletics, Recreation, and Fitness. \r\nHistoric setting near urban centers: an hour to Baltimore, 90 minutes to Washington, DC, two hours to Philadelphia.
