About us
Sweet Briar College is a liberal arts and sciences college where women make history. Our nationally recognized academic and equestrian programs and leadership core curriculum prepare the next generation of women leaders. Three Centers of Excellence represent the College’s academic distinction in engineering, science and technology; sustainability; and creativity, design and the arts. Sweet Briar is one of just two women’s colleges in the country with an ABET-accredited engineering program. *** Confidence, courage and grit. Independent-minded, fiercely determined to see your dreams through: deep down, you know that’s who you’ve always been. Here on Sweet Briar College’s 2,840-acre campus in the foothills of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, we reveal and amplify everything that makes you amazing and help you own it in ways you never thought possible—on the athletic field, in the riding arena and in the workplace. You’ll be surrounded by a family of faculty, coaches and friends who will push you, excite you, and energize you: to take what you learn into the world and take the lead. With an average class size of eight students, you’ll lead research, ask questions and forge supportive relationships with faculty that can last for decades. You’ll graduate from Sweet Briar career-ready and life-ready: you’ll know who you are and what you do best. Our students have a favorite rallying cry: “There’s nothing that you cannot do.” You’ll discover that, here, it rings true every day. At Sweet Briar’s core stands a student community that’s broadly diverse, tightly knit and wholly unique. And you graduate into a network of Sweet Briar alumnae—thousands of successful women ready to share information and provide guidance.
