Located in the heart of St. Louis, WashU has a reputation as a premier university. WashU supports students while providing a challenging—but rewarding—learning experience. WashU students graduate with the tools to shape their future.

WashU offers rigorous courses taught by faculty at the top of their fields. But WashU believes there’s more to the college experience than academic excellence. Faculty and students create a community of achievers built around nurturing each individual, helping one another succeed, and working together for a brighter future. Twice a year, the Office of Undergraduate Research presents the Undergraduate Research Symposium— a forum for students to present their research findings and a celebration of the range of research that takes place at WashU.

WashU offers undergraduate programs in the College of Arts & Sciences, Olin Business School, McKelvey School of Engineering, and Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts (College of Architecture and College of Art). Students choose from more than 100 fields of study and 1,900 courses. Whether you are exploring outside the classroom, participating in one of 400+ student-led clubs and organizations, conducting hands-on research with world-renowned faculty, or landing an internship that propels you toward your eventual career path: WashU is here to support you.
