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.

Haverford’s three academic Centers shape daily life at the College by invigorating the arts on campus, supporting cutting-edge research and inspiring students on issues across the globe.
A collaboration between Haverford’s Arboretum Association and Thomas Devaney‘s Advanced Poetry Workshop led to “Under an Oak: A Tree Poetry Tour,” in which Devaney’s students read their original poems dedicated to campus trees.
