Davidson College

Many people mistakenly assume that all liberal arts colleges are located in  the Northeast .  The Claremont colleges  are a great example of Californian liberal arts schools.

Davidson is an excellent  example of a top ranked ( #9)liberal arts program located in the South.  Located in suburban Charlotte, NC,  Davisdon is a  excellent liberal arts institution  that prides itself on creating a "community of scholars"  environment. Close contact with professors brings an unusually high number of students into graduate-level research and publishing. Nearly 74 percent of students study abroad.  popular majors are  political science,  biology, environmental studies  and  premed courses.


    Applying to Davidson is   competitive with an admission rate of  about 20%.   The application requoiresd a  peer recommendation  and 3 short answer questions:

1.The Davidson community abides by an honor code that governs academic as well as personal life. Please refer to the Honor Code literature included with the application. As a prospective member of our community, discuss the benefits and drawbacks of the Davidson Honor Code and your role in it.

2.What are the qualities and characteristics of Davidson that appeal to you, and what contributions do you anticipate making as a Davidson student?

3.List the books you have read in the past year for school or leisure. Place an asterisk by those books required for classes you have taken.
