Liberal Arts College in Ohio

College of Wooster:
The College of Wooster is a private liberal arts college offering undergraduate degree programs. Wooster offers an excellent, comprehensive liberal education, culminating in a rigorous, in-depth senior project of inquiry or creative expression, called Independent Study. By working one-on-one in partnership with a faculty adviser to conceive, organize and complete this project on a topic of his or her own choosing, every Wooster student develops abilities valued by employers and graduate schools alike: initiative, self-confidence, independent judgment, creative problem solving, and strong written and oral communication skills.
