Dickinson provides many valuable advantages to its students, which leads to our alumni achieving greater success in life, in the community and in work. Dickinson enrolls highly talented students who demonstrate the promise of becoming all that the college expects from them. We pride ourselves on our low student-faculty ratio that encourages individualized learning and personal relations, and we are committed to access and diversity.
A Dickinson education is focused on a useful, pragmatic liberal-arts experience that teaches students to creatively solve complex problems and is superior preparation not only for careers and graduate school but for flexibility and leadership in the new millennium. Our graduates enter the most competitive graduate and professional schools and 96 percent are in grad school or have a job one year after graduation.
Dickinson has a powerful network of alumni who provide opportunities for internships and job entry as well as preparation for graduate and professional school. We strive to share the value of a Dickinson education through the stories of our alumni achievements and the connections between our alumni and students.
