Founded in 1840 and located in scenic Georgetown, just 30 minutes north of Austin, Southwestern University was the first institution of higher education in Texas. Today, we are a nationally ranked private university that is home to 1,500 students and 110 faculty from across the U.S. and 19 other countries.
SU's liberal arts and sciences curriculum incorporates the humanities, fine arts, social sciences, and natural sciences across 37 majors and seven preprofessional programs. Combining dynamic courses with real-world learning experiences, our students develop skills that will serve them throughout their lives and careers, from creating new ideas and collaborating with others to adapting to new normals and solving problems from multiple perspectives. Whether they're teachers, policymakers, artists, or healthcare providers, our graduates hone their thinking and communication skills, develop intercultural and global perspectives, and gain a deep sense of history—all of which enable them to make sense of events and remain resilient while navigating life's inevitable challenges.
SU faculty balance award-winning scholarship with a dedication to one-on-one mentorship. Our students also grow through hands-on experiences such as internships, undergraduate research, study abroad, and civic engagement. The majority of SU students live on campus and find their niche among our 100 student organizations. Our Pirates compete in 20 different NCAA Division III sports, with many more involved in club or intramural sports.
"Southwestern has changed me. I have seen more and done more in four years than I could have ever imagined doing in a lifetime as a high-school senior, and I owe it all to the opportunities afforded to me by Southwestern University." —Danyale Kellogg '19

Admissions
Overall
From The School
Southwestern uses a holistic review process when considering students for admission. In looking for engaged learners, we consider academic performance, including grades earned and challenging courses in areas of interest. In addition, strength and depth of writing samples, participation and demonstrated leadership in extracurricular activities, cogency and content of recommendations, and recognition or achievement in national programs allow us to determine how a student will fit within our community. SAT and ACT test scores are optional except in the case of international, home-schooled, and certain named-scholarship applicants. We value the opportunity to get to know students better through an optional interview.
Our mission is to treat all applicants fairly and with respect. In all cases, our decisions are reached by multiple individuals reviewing the application and voting in a manner they believe is in the best interest of both the student and the university. We take this responsibility seriously and recognize that we are helping to shape the futures of our applicants.
Students may choose to apply Early Decision (binding), Early Action, or Regular Decision based on the time frame that works best for the student. Students may apply by submitting a Common Application, an Apply Texas application, or Southwestern's application.
Transfer students—students who have completed at least one semester (12 hours or more) following high-school graduation—are welcomed during the fall and spring semesters and may apply using either the Common Application or Apply Texas. Students should submit an essay, an official high-school transcript, official college transcripts from all schools attended, and a college official's report. An individual interview allows transfer students to ask questions regarding course transferability.

Career Services and Placement
Southwestern's Center for Career & Professional Development (CCPD) ranks in the top 20 in the nation for internships The Princeton Review. Students begin using career services during their first year to develop the skills needed to obtain a job or continue their postgraduate education. Our staff provide personalized coaching and innovative programs on important skills such as résumé writing, interviewing, and job search strategies. In addition, our Alumni Network Mentoring and PirateConnect programs empower students to develop their professional networks and receive insider advice through connections with alumni who share their intellectual and cocurricular interests.
Two-thirds of all Southwestern students participate in at least one internship during their college career—the most important factor in successfully achieving postgraduate employment—and 86% of our alumni are employed or in graduate or professional school within 10 months of graduating.

Academic Programs
Southwestern promotes lifelong learning through an integrated liberal arts and sciences program that incorporates the humanities, fine arts, social sciences, and natural sciences. All students take a first-year seminar that sets the stage for critical thinking across the disciplines. Other requirements include social justice, foreign language and culture, and fitness. SU's Paideia philosophy encourages students to dig deeper and make connections between courses, culminating in a capstone experience. Our flexible curriculum enables students to pursue their passions and explore subjects outside their major(s). As a sociology and English double major explains, "It's nice to be able to get a taste of how others may see and understand the world in various other disciplines."
SU provides multiple experiential-learning opportunities, such as study abroad, internships, community-engaged learning, and innovative research programs. Students broaden their perspectives through semesters abroad in London, Spain, Peru, and Argentina; internships in Austin and Washington, DC; and arts apprenticeships in New York City. At least half our students volunteer through campus organizations, alternative spring breaks, and courses with service components. Meanwhile, the King Creativity Fund provides grants to support "innovative and visionary projects" each academic year, and the annual Research and Creative Works Symposium provides an opportunity for students to present original work in an academic conference setting.

Students Say
Located just north of Austin, Southwestern University may be the oldest institution of higher learning in Texas, but it prides itself on providing a modern, relevant education that prepares students for dynamic careers. Southwestern’s liberal arts education emphasizes the Paideia system of learning, such that students come to identify interdisciplinary relationships between what they are studying and how it relates to the world in terms of understanding and problem-solving. This approach often combines subjects that wouldn’t normally be thought of as connected. For example, writing a children’s book to improve nutrition in lower socioeconomic communities. Critical and dynamic thinking are emphasized, and students are encouraged to “think and develop a stance every chance they get.” With the Paideia approach, classes tend to be more interactive and unique, regardless of the subject. Class discussion “is definitely held in high esteem” and it creates a constructive learning environment. On the whole, professors “go out of the teaching norm to engage students, from having classes outside to creating activities and assignments...[for] students to have a more hands-on and memorable experience.” The school is “academically driven to produce not just educated people to work in various fields, but future academics.”
The closeness of faculty and students “creates a wonderful learning environment in which students are comfortable asking questions, going to office hours, and getting the specific help that they need.” Faculty “are very supportive and tend to be understanding when it comes to accommodations and late work, and it’s easy to build a relationship with them.” Research and practical experience are valued and there are many opportunities available to students throughout their college career. One example of this is student teaching, which “is an amazing opportunity as most schools only offer it your senior year.” The school and faculty facilitate experiential learning; “the Center for Professional Development is very helpful for student internships, networking, and jobs post-graduation,” and professors often “have incredible connections in their fields,” which can also result in internships and valuable career connections.

Students Say
Many students say that Southwestern’s “stellar career services program” helps distinguish the school. They can turn to the Center for Career & Professional Development for help “creat[ing] resumes, apply[ing] to grad school and find[ing] the perfect career.” SU students frequently attend the myriad of events career services sponsors throughout the year, including the annual SOAR Summit, a two-day professional development conference for sophomores. Most students graduate with at least one internship under their belts, and many choose to complete a high-impact experience (such as faculty-mentored research or service learning) organized through the Center for Integrative Learning. Best of all, SU hosts multiple career fairs, enabling students to network with a wide variety of employers. Of the SU graduates who visited Payscale.com, 55 percent found a high level of meaning in their job and reported a median starting salary of $60,700.

From The School
Students excel at Southwestern, but they don't compete in a cutthroat atmosphere. Instead, with 1,500 students and a small-town residential setting, students thrive in a genuinely warm, supportive environment. With a strong majority of students demonstrating commitment to civic engagement and social justice, all SU students are encouraged to explore multiple niches in academics, extracurriculars, and volunteering, so you'll meet entrepreneurs who are also football players, chemists who are also opera singers, and computer scientists who are also advocates for the environment.
Southwestern is home to 100 student organizations, 24 club and intramural sports, 10 national fraternities and sororities, and numerous honor societies and special-interest groups. Our students discover new passions and develop their skills through engagement and leadership on campus. And our Mosaic initiative helps students reflect on and articulate the value of these cocurricular experiences.
Faculty
Southwestern's faculty truly sets the university apart, balancing the highest level of scholarship with a dedication to teaching. This dynamic group of professors consists of award-winning experts in their respective fields who often work side by side with students, collaborating on research, conference presentations, and even publication.
Southwestern classes are facilitated by professors, not teaching assistants, and all tenured or tenure-track faculty hold a doctorate or the highest degree in their respective fields. As educators, SU faculty excel at teaching in an intimate and engaged environment: the student–faculty ratio is 12:1, with an average class size of 17 students. The university provides multiple development and training opportunities for its faculty, keeping them on the cutting edge of the latest scholarship.

Students Say
This is an “involved, communicative, productive, and supportive” student body where most people “join a lot of extracurriculars and quite a few people have on-campus jobs.” While it is not a very racially diverse school, it is an inclusive one, and students are “pretty progressive or cool with everyone and their identity.” People may have different ideologies, beliefs, and aspirations “yet we all work successfully in the same setting.” Everyone at Southwestern “is seen and heard, and resources can be devoted to every student in need.” This is a generally laid-back, well-balanced place where “the vibe on the campus is fun and happy.”

Location
Located on 700 beautiful acres in the heart of Georgetown, Southwestern's towering oak trees, early-20th-century buildings, and lush lawns add to its picturesque feel. But the university's commitment to sustainability is also evident: since its transition to 100% renewable energy in 2010, SU has been ranked among the top environmentally responsible colleges in the U.S.
Stroll through our residential campus on any given day, and you'll see students studying on the Academic Mall, lounging in a hammock, or pedaling to class on one of our shared yellow Pirate bikes. The central dining hub on campus, Mabee Commons, features a variety of meal, snack, and drink choices. Our nearby coffee bar and grill, the Cove, is open late for playing pool or simply hanging out with friends.
Southwestern's location just 25 miles north of Austin provides the best of both worlds. The city of Georgetown, with its historic downtown and the flowing San Gabriel River, boasts small-town charm and the Most Beautiful Town Square in Texas. Meanwhile, the vibrant capital is not only known for its live music, Austin City Limits, and SXSW, but it has also been dubbed the "Silicon Valley of the South" for its tech focus and innovation.
Campus Facilities & Equipment
Undergoing a multimillion-dollar expansion and renovation that was completed in 2019, the Fondren–Jones Science Center is the hub for Southwestern's Garey School of Natural Sciences. The building was designed to integrate students and faculty throughout all STEM fields, to enhance active learning, and to facilitate collaboration. It features cutting-edge teaching laboratories, student–faculty research spaces, interdisciplinary learning studios, technology-enhanced classrooms, and comfortable study lounges for use by the entire campus community.
The Corbin J. Robertson Center is Southwestern's 95,000-square-foot recreational and athletic facility. It houses a recently renovated indoor running track, a state-of-the-art weight room, cardio fitness studios, basketball and volleyball courts, and an indoor swimming pool. Southwestern is also home to various athletic fields for football, baseball, softball, soccer, lacrosse, and intramurals.
The Smith Library gives students access to more than 390,000 volumes and 125 databases. In Special Collections, students can engage directly with historical manuscripts, records on Texas history and politics that are held exclusively at Southwestern, and even a cuneiform tablet from approximately 2000 BCE. The Smith Library also houses MakerSpace Studios, where campus community members can use our 3-D printers, photography and video studios, sound booth, or media lab for class and personal projects.

Students Say
More than three-quarters of Southwestern University students live on-campus, and to make getting around easier, everyone has access to Pirate Bikes, the rideshare program that provides green transport on campus. The school provides plenty of social opportunities for students. In addition to clubs, organizations, and athletics, the RAs in the residence halls “put on great events such as Just Dance nights, ping pong tournaments, and craft nights,” and the university itself “is good with hosting events open to all of the student body” such as the weekly Friday events that include “comedy, magic, trivia, and roller skating.” Greek life and varsity athletics (both playing and attending games) are both strong here. While there is a lot of fun to be had, students take their academics seriously. On the whole, students are very busy and most “try to get their social time while being productive (studying at the same time, club activities),” which is made easier by the good weather and green outdoor common spaces like the quad, and most people “go out on the weekends, but chiefly are here to study.” The campus is quite self-contained, but when they want to get away, some students “make the drive into the big city that’s 30 minutes away for more choices or events.”
