The campus is gorgeous and so are the students! Everyone works very hard but also knows how to manage their time and have fun. The atmosphere is unique but I would not have it any other way.

Sarah Lawrence is different and does not appeal to just any student. It requires self-motivation, ambition, and academic integrity. Without those things you will either hate SLC or eventually get kicked out.

This school fits a certain type of student. If you're independent, liberal, and creatively inclined you will fit in well. If you're passionate about your studies, you will really appreciate the one on one time you get with your professors.

Sarah Lawrence is like no other school. Students here are intellectually engaged, and have a passion for what they study. With the lack of requirements, students are able to take classes in whatever they want, resulting in classes filled with students who want to be there, eager to learn the material.

A very independent school with many opportunities for rigor.

Sarah Lawrence is a place for those who could picture themselves in a modern day Renaissance. It is full of philosophers and photographers, psychologists and painters, art historians and authors, and generally intellectuals and artists. The faculty here is astounding and anyone who chooses to come here and really engage with the learning opportunities provided is bound to expand their intellectual horizon.

This school offers a very broad range of interesting courses. Its really beneficial to not have general education requirements. I can't imagine myself being happier at any other school.

Sarah Lawrence is devoted to students learning anything and everything they can by providing unrestricted access to professors and incredible courses. Sarah Lawrence is a school that is perfect for bright, independent liberal students who don't wish to be tied down to a certain major or field of study. If you come here, prepare to be challenged in every way and to experience a community unlike any other.

Sarah Lawrence is the safest place to explore all aspects of yourself. The faculty and staff are more helpful and loving than you can imagine and the friends you'll make here are the truest ones you'll make anywhere. If that isn't enough, the beautiful campus itself will provide all the support and nurture you need to make it through the arduous winter and the late night conference paper cramming.

Sarah Lawrence is a small but vibrant community of all the weird kids you knew in high school. With small classes, intense one-on-one work with professors, and in-depth evaluations of one's writing, this school is optimal for students who want to focus on development of ideas rather than letter grades. It is a great place for intellectual exploration, as well as a portal to New York City, which is only a 20-minute train ride away!
