Academic rigor, journalistic flair
Colby College
Founded in 1813, Colby is the 12th-oldest private liberal arts college in the country. Located in central Maine, the college’s 714-acre Mayflower Hill campus overlooks downtown Waterville and the Kennebec River Valley.
Colby’s 2,000 students come from nearly every state and more than 70 countries to take advantage of renowned academic programs, a curriculum that encourages educational exploration and collaborative learning experiences led by world-class professors.
The college’s exploratory Jan Plan term, extensive study-abroad opportunities and graduate-level research experiences are pillars of the Colby education. In both the classroom and the field, students work closely with professors—a collaboration that is transformational for both and often results in lifelong connections.
Cocurricular and campus life programs optimize learning opportunities and help students develop leadership and communication skills. Members of the Colby community come from a range of backgrounds and offer diverse perspectives. Every member of the community has different experiences to share, enriching classroom and dining hall discussions.
