About University of Mary Washington

Located in Fredericksburg, VA – between the nation's capitol and state's capitol – University of Mary Washington offers more than sixty undergraduate majors, minors, and courses of study through the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, and College of Education. This isn’t an education on auto-pilot. We’re one of the top public liberal arts and sciences universities in the nation. (Just check out our rankings in the most prestigious selective guides.) We’ll challenge you to make the connections that aren’t obvious: the beauty in science and the logic in theater. We’ll help you imagine broadly and think deeply. We’ll encourage you to look for the wisdom hidden inside every mistake you’ve ever made. Don’t worry – you’ll also have plenty of time for Facebook, Frisbee, and fun. This is a close-knit campus where friends are like family and opportunity bubbles up all around you. You’ll find yourself laughing out loud in the residence halls, kicking back in the Eagle’s Nest, working out in the fitness center, and generally having a great time wherever you run into good friends, which is pretty much everywhere. But we don’t make things any simpler than they should be, because you’re not going to college to be less than you are. With innovative and accessible master teachers, you'll be inspired to think critically, engage meaningfully, and communicate effectively. Our small, highly interactive classes motivate students to prepare for, participate in, and embrace new knowledge so that they get the most out of their educational investment. Our graduates are world ready. They're what employers are looking for: a resourceful, articulate, adaptable, disciplined problem-solver and critical thinker.
