The Haverford campus is the oldest planned college landscape in the country. Our meticulously maintained 200 acres contain a nature trail, a Pinetum and flower gardens.
Haverford attracts intellectually curious, independent learners who value honesty, collaboration, and above all, new ways of seeing and improving the world.
As you perform real-world research and immerse yourself in hands-on learning, you'll work side-by-side with professors who are at the top of their fields.
Our mascot—the Black Squirrel—has a genetic adaptation that gives it a bold, black coat. Join our distinctive community and stand out from the pack with your fellow Haverfordians.
Every year the Center for Peace and Global Citizenship, the John B. Hurford ’60 Center for Arts and Humanities and the Marian E. Koshland Integrated Science Center sponsor summer work, research and internships for almost 150 students.
Best known for railroad photography, O. Winston Link also shot promotional images of Haverford and many are in Special Collections.
