Our campus has 200 acres of award-winning architecture and landscaping; more than 50 academic, athletic, and residential buildings; and a nationally recognized arboretum with 400 species of trees and shrubs, a 3.5-acre duck pond, gardens, and wooded areas.

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 Haverford major includes a capstone project. Rory Kennison ’18 wrote a two-act play for the thesis of his independent theater major, and, with the help of seven student actors, presented his production as a poignant staged reading.

Luis Perez ’94, who is legally blind, has a passion for photography—and for getting the right supports into classrooms so that all students have the chance to succeed.
