From the Institution

Antioch College is a progressive liberal arts institution renowned for its bold approach to education, combining rigorous academics with real-world experience. Founded in 1850 in Yellow Springs, Ohio, Antioch has a long-standing commitment to social justice, experiential learning, and democratic community engagement. Here, students don't just earn a degree-they develop the skills, values, and courage to tackle global challenges and lead meaningful lives. Antioch's educational model is built on three core pillars: Experiential Learning: Through our renowned Cooperative Education ("Co-op") program, students alternate classroom study with full-time work experiences across the U.S. and globally, gaining hands-on skills in fields like environmental science, social justice, arts, and activism. Social Justice & Inclusion: As one of the first U.S. colleges to admit women and Black students on equal footing with white men, Antioch remains deeply committed to equity, diversity, and fostering change-makers. Student Self-Governance: Antiochians actively shape their education and community through shared governance, reflective practices, and collaborative decision-making. Why Antioch? Personalized Education: Small class sizes ensure mentorship-driven learning and interdisciplinary majors tailored to your passions. Real-World Impact: Co-ops, community partnerships, and activist traditions empower students to apply knowledge beyond campus-whether restoring ecosystems, advocating for policy change, or launching creative ventures. Sustainability & Innovation: Our historic campus is a living lab for sustainability, powered by solar energy, organic farming, and zero-waste initiatives. Global Alumni Network: Graduates include Nobel laureates, civil rights leaders, and pioneers in education, the arts, and sciences. Antioch is for students who want to think critically, act courageously, and redefine success on their own terms.
