Just a short train ride from the center of Philadelphia is one of the nation's most renowned women's colleges– Bryn Mawr College. A sincere focus on the liberal arts and its ardent support of women in STEM fields, Bryn Mawr is a place where women leaders and scholars are nurtured. The admissions process mirrors the academic experience, says Marissa Turchi, Senior Assistant Director of Admission, in that both are individualized. To that end, Bryn Mawr has adopted a "test optional" admissions policy. Added to the stellar academic offerings are some deep-seated traditions–like May Day and class colors–that make the Bryn Mawr experience truly distinctive.
