About Vassar College

Vassar College, located in Poughkeepsie, NY, is an independent, coeducational, residential liberal arts college renowned for fostering intellectual openness and lively exploration. Founded in 1861, it became coeducational in 1969 and is consistently ranked among the top liberal arts colleges in the country. While Vassar College does not host a dedicated architecture school or offer professional architecture degrees (B.Arch, M.Arch), it provides robust architecture-related studies within its Art History and Studio Art departments. These programs offer a strong liberal arts foundation and pre-professional guidance for students aspiring to pursue graduate studies in architecture or urban planning. The college's mission is to provide a thorough, well-proportioned, and liberal education that inspires individuals to lead purposeful lives, promoting analytical, informed, and independent thinking.
