Why Goucher?

Goucher has been an academic leader in liberal arts education since 1885, paving the way in internships, study abroad, and distance-learning programs.

Goucher's professors know their students by name. The student-faculty ratio is 9 to 1, and undergraduates frequently collaborate with professors on research.

Goucher's beautiful, pedestrian-friendly, 287-acre campus is right outside the vibrant city of Baltimore and one hour from our nation's capital.

Goucher takes community seriously. Respect, inclusion, communication, service, social justice, and personal responsibility are not only prized but practiced.

Goucher believes in exploring big ideas. World-class guest scholars and artists visit each year, giving students the opportunity to ask important questions of important people.

Goucher students are engaged. They speak their minds, start their own organizations, and develop their own unique voices.

Goucher students get out into the world, eager to contribute to their communities through internships, field work, study abroad, and community service.
