Beloit College

(Beloit, WI)

Beloit College offers a rigorous, transformative curriculum. Beloit's distinct features include its dynamic and supportive intellectual community, innovative freshmen and sophomore-year programs, teaching-oriented museums, a new science center, and a low student/faculty ratio.

The Beloit community is diverse and noted for its passionate engagement with ideas and the world. Its 1250 students are from nearly every state, the District of Columbia, and over forty countries. Twenty-one percent of its students are domestic minorities or students from countries other than the United States.

Beloit offers more than fifty majors, more than thirty minors, and a number of dual-degree and pre-professional programs. A flexible curriculum grounded in rigorous study encourages independent research, fieldwork, and collaboration with peers and professors. The coursework is interdisciplinary, experiential, and global in scope.

Beloit's wooded forty-acre campus includes twenty-eight buildings in a range of architectural styles; four buildings are listed on the National or State Register of Historic Places. The campus is marked by winding pathways, expansive lawns, displays of public art, and ancient Indian mounds.
