Manhattanville College: School of Arts & Sciences

Manhattanville College was founded in 1841 as a Catholic college for women. While we have been co-educational and non-denominational since 1971, we remain committed to our rich tradition as a values-centered liberal arts college. The School of Arts & Sciences offers a broad range of majors and minors to choose from.

At Manhattanville College, rigorous academic preparation within a nurturing environment is matched by personalized attention to every student. Our close-knit community of 1,700 undergraduate students and 1,000 graduate students is diverse, representing over 30 states and 60 countries.
