The Basics

Shenandoah University is student focused, and we offer a unique combination of more than 80 programs of study in six schools, small class sizes, opportunities for international travel, a diverse student body, more than 300 artistic performances a year, and close proximity to our nation's capitol and several international airports.

In addition to the bustling activities of the nearby metro regions (Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, Md.), you can take advantage of the four-season recreational opportunities of the Shenandoah Valley's scenic beauty, natural ridges, rivers, caves, rural vistas, and hiking and biking trails.

Our interdisciplinary, hands-on approach to liberal arts and professional studies challenges you to develop a wide range of skills; our close-knit community truly makes Shenandoah University a "Yes, You Can" environment; and students enjoy out-of-classroom experiences that extend the classroom for hands-on learning.

At Shenandoah, faculty will know you by name, and you will receive the encouragement and support you seek as you aspire to achieve your goals and plans for the future.
