Diversity
Diversity is evident in every classroom and residence hall on campus. Living and growing in a community made up of women from different cultures, races and ideological viewpoints is a central aspect of a Bryn Mawr education.
In many places, a cohesive community comes at the expense of individuality. Relationships at Bryn Mawr are based on something entirely different: a tremendous respect for individual differences. This is a community that resounds with an energy, healthy friction and a range of perspectives that can come only from true cultural and ideological diversity.
Bryn Mawr students come from 49 states and nearly as many foreign countries. One in four is a student of color. In the words of one graduating senior, "This is a place where being yourself makes you feel part of something larger. A strong sense of self is what we all have in common."
