Established in 1958, Adrian College is one of the oldest liberal arts colleges in Michigan. With diverse academics, a beautiful campus and an individualized educational approach, there’s plenty of substance to back up its 150 years’ worth of history.

Adrian College offers more than 40 programs of study. The school emphasizes the liberal arts, encouraging interdisciplinary study. However, there are also several pre-professional programs at Adrian, such as:

  • Pre-Art Therapy
  • Pre-Architecture
  • Pre-Engineering
  • Pre-Health Science
  • Pre-Seminary
  • Pre-Law

Eligible Adrian College students may receive financial aid. This includes need-based government loans and grants, or any of the college’s institutional scholarships. These scholarships, which are based either on academic or artistic achievement, vary in amount from $6,000 to $50,000, and many of them are renewable.

While providing the cozy atmosphere of a private liberal arts college, Adrian offers a vibrant student life. You can join more than 70 clubs and organizations, participate in one of the 25 varsity and club sports teams, or join a fraternity or sorority.

The school is also less than an hour from the large college town of Ann Arbor, and about an hour and a half from Detroit.
