Chatham College for Women

Chatham College for Women preserves the institution’s historic commitment to the education of women since the University’s founding as Pennsylvania Female College in 1869. Chatham College for Women maintains the academic and co-curricular programs for undergraduate women and embodies the traditions and rituals of one of the nation’s oldest colleges for women.

The undergraduate curriculum, combined with the Senior Tutorial, an original research project guided one-on-one with a Chatham professor, provides an excellent foundation to continue to graduate and professional schools. Chatham College for Women offers strong preparation for law school, medical school, and science-based graduate programs as well as the University’s own graduate degree programs. Students’ personal, professional, and leadership skills are developed to their fullest potential through internships, study abroad, service-learning and leadership training opportunities, and personal development seminars. All first-year students receive HP tablet computers which are integrated into coursework, with access to a wireless campus network

Social consciousness, awareness and understanding of the environment, interest in public service, a strong grounding in the sciences and liberal arts, and the ability to communicate effectively are characteristics that Chatham undergraduates share.
