At Saint Mary’s College, we are pioneers in teaching women. We will empower you to explore, lead, take intellectual risks, and challenge yourself as you prepare to challenge the world.
You will converse and collaborate with professors and students in small classes that average only 16 students. Our faculty will not only know you, they’ll listen to you, support you, and challenge you to perform your best. You’ll join a close-knit community committed to social justice as well as academic pursuits. For the second year in a row, U.S. News & World Report ranks Saint Mary's as one of the Nation's Best Liberal Arts Colleges in the magazine's "2009 America's Best Colleges" issue.
