Liberal Arts College in New Hampshire

Colby-Sawyer College:
Colby-Sawyer College, located in New London, in the Lake Sunapee region of New Hampshire, is a small, liberal arts college offering undergraduate degree programs in a wide range of areas. In their first two years, our students choose from an intriguing and stimulating selection of interdisciplinary courses called Pathways rather than enroll in a host of core requirements. During their college careers, 98 percent of our students participate in one or more internships in their fields of study. They also create Learning Portfolios, in which they demonstrate their ongoing progress and achievement. All of our students conclude their senior year with a Capstone project, in which they develop and demonstrate a deeper body of knowledge in their academic major.
