“I returned from study abroad a more thoughtful student and citizen, as well as a much better navigator!” – Grace Mangigian ’16
Each year more than 130 Haverford students take advantage of the opportunity to study abroad.
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.
