EXPERIENCE SEWANEE - APRIL 12, 2024

Now that you've been accepted to Sewanee, we can't blame you for wanting to come and see us for a weekend. (To be honest, we can't blame anyone for that. It's pretty awesome up here.) So pack your bags, come see what we hope will be your new home very soon, and get to know some of the people you may be sharing it with! Meet our dean of admission & financial aid, hear from first year students, explore the areas of study that interest you most, and check out where you may live as a Sewanee student. When you leave (preferably for just a few months), you'll have a taken the first steps towards making this place your own and uncovering an experience that has the power to change things forever.

The Sewanee Pledge
Plan to do something cool. We'll cover the rest.

Sewanee provides funding for an approved summer internship or research fellowship, a semester-long study abroad opportunity at no additional tuition cost, and the ability to graduate with one major in four years. Of course, you will have to do your part. If you meet Sewanee’s academic and social expectations, these opportunities will be provided.

Our Promise to you
Programs of Study
38 Majors, 44 Minors, 3 Certificates & More

Our small classes mean that your voice will be heard, your contribution will be expected, and your opinion will be listened to (and disagreed with, and challenged, and seen from a different perspective, and pushed in a new direction, and considered—and you know what? Maybe we’re both right. See how it works?).
