about
Every day at Ursinus, you get another opportunity to begin.
What you should know is this: Ursinus is a place where you’re allowed to try and fail, explore and examine, open up and drill down.
Ursinus equips students not just to navigate complexity but to flourish in a world of constant change. We prepare nimble, creative, forward-thinking leaders—people ready to shape the future.
For more than 150 years, Ursinus has stayed true to its founding spirit of egalitarianism. The College has evolved into a robust campus with many measures of diversity, social growth and academic success.
A top 100 liberal arts college, Ursinus is renown for its undergraduate research and is acclaimed for social mobility, exceptional teaching, and is frequently recognized as a top “Best Value” institution.
With an art museum in our own backyard, to the sculpture garden, to the serene Perkiomen Trail, Ursinus—and Collegeville—is the perfect place to discover your potential a little more each day.
We are dedicated to offering an environment where all students—and everyone who steps foot on our campus—feels accepted, affirmed and at home.
College leadership collaborates closely with the president in a collaborative and advisory role to help shape the College’s strategic direction.
