A 21st Century Education

A 21st Century Education
at America’s Sixth Oldest College
STUDENT LIFE
Moravian College has a million ways for students to unleash
their inner go-getters outside of class, from 20 NCAA
Division III teams, as well as intramural and club sports,
to 80-plus clubs and organizations, including Amnesty
International, International Club, IDEA: Instilling Diversity
Equality and Awareness, Saudi Student Club, Middle Eastern
Club and the Muslim Students Association. Greyhounds
participate in service, Greek life, performing arts and campus
communications.
Greyhounds get to be front and center for campus traditions
(like Moravian College’s distinguished speaker series) and
enjoy amenities such as the always-buzzing student union and
the new fitness center. Moravian’s quality music programs and
top exhibits in its Payne Gallery showcase world-class talent
and creativity.
For centuries, Moravian College has been unleashing the
kind of out-of-the-box dreamers, doers, and go-getters—
revolutionary-thinking Greyhounds—the world needs. And
Students can serve on United Student Government, host a radio that’s just the beginning.

As America’s sixth oldest college, Moravian College (MC)
has been a little revolutionary from the start. Believing in an
education for all since its inception, the College has been
pushing boundaries in small ways that have big (lasting)
impacts since 1742. Some 275 years later, Moravian College
gives 1,850 undergraduates eye-opening, heart-racing ways to
discover their own little revolutionary spirits.
MC’s Office of Global Inclusion is entirely dedicated to the
current international student population, with staff members
always willing to help and always planning exciting events
specifically designed for international students. It’s part
of the College’s Center for Intercultural Advancement and
Global Inclusion, which partners with faculty and staff to help
international students manage their transition to the College
and the local community as they pursue academic success.
Being a little revolutionary has taken Moravian College (and
its students) a long way. Ninety-five percent of the College’s
graduates finish in four years. Even better? Newly minted alumni
land jobs at companies like IBM or head to grad school at
such institutions as Johns Hopkins Hospital, Georgetown, and
University of Pennsylvania. So it’s not surprising that Bloomberg
Businessweek has ranked Moravian College among the top 25
percent of U.S. schools for high return on investment, and that
Educate to Career, Inc. has ranked Moravian College 35th out
of 1,182 colleges and universities nationwide for “graduate
outcomes” in its annual college ranking index.
MC’s hometown—Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in the Lehigh
Valley—is the perfect college town. Students can connect with
Lehigh University undergrads and grads and explore the town’s
student-friendly restaurants, quirky shops, and growing arts
scene. Bethlehem has been recognized as one of America’s
top 10 cities to live in, and the Lehigh Valley is the fastest
growing and third most populous region in the state. It is also
conveniently located about an hour and half outside New York
City and within driving distance of Washington, D.C.
Moravian College encourages students to dream a little bolder,
think a little different, and do something a little out there.
That’s why the College annually awards international students
generous scholarships to help with the cost of tuition, and why
it gives every freshman a MacBook Pro® and iPad® to help them
get ready for the tech-savvy, ever-connected world. And it’s
why the College is always growing (with two new majors and a
state-of-the-art medical and learning center for a new athletic
training program).

“I love the warm and welcoming community
here at Moravian College. All of the
professors have a personal interest in
helping the students develop.”

ACADEMICS
Moravian College believes in the liberating power of the liberal arts. That means students have the freedom to own their education.
Choose from more than 55 academic programs. Get hands-on, in-the-field experience, such as interning with NASA. Work oneon-one with professors on Student Opportunities for Academic Research (SOAR) projects. International Students also have an
opportunity to participate in study abroad programs in nearly 20 countries, including Argentina, Germany, Thailand, and Japan.
Studying abroad while studying in the United States is a great way to travel while earning a degree! In addition, students can
participate in programs like Add-Venture, which allows freshmen with a clear focus to accelerate past first-year requirements to
explore multiple interests.

“I am indescribably grateful for this
institution. Moravian College offers a great
education. The classes are small, so there
is a lot of opportunity to talk with your
professors and get help if you need it. Both
the faculty and staff are very supportive
and very encouraging.”
