ATLANTA:
Spelman College
Spelman College is a privately endowed, four-year
liberal arts college for women, founded in 1881. An historically
black women's college, Spelman is one of the most prominent institutions
of higher education in the country. The college provides students
with an academic climate conducive to the full development of academic
and leadership potential, endeavoring to strengthen those qualities
that enable women to be self-confident as well as spiritually and
culturally enriched. Spelman attempts to instill in students as
appreciation for the multi-cultural communities of the world in
which they live and a sense of responsibility for bringing about
positive change in those communities. The college's well-designed
32-acre campus is located just west of downtown Atlanta and has
an enrollment of 1800 women. The academic program includes 23 major
areas of study and encourages students to pursue a broad program
of study in languages, natural sciences and mathematics, social
sciences, fine arts and the humanities. A low student-faculty ratio
of 15:1 insures small classes and personal attention. The college
offers an extensive array of co-curricular activities involving
interaction with politicians, artists and business executives as
well as a full range of extra-curricular opportunities. Housing
is in dormitories. Students from other colleges who wish to attend
Spelman may be admitted as Guest Applicants. Eligibility: Minimum
GPA of 2.50.
