Student Spotlight
Kate Stevens
Communication Design Major, Class of 2025
“College was never something I thought I would pursue, but when I was a senior in high school, my mom asked me to take a tour of Stephens. The moment I stepped on campus, I felt like I was at home. It was an experience that had never happened to me before. I looked around and saw my future right in front of me.”
Why Stephens?
Our mission is to ensure you have the best college experience possible – and that means we’re here to inspire and support your personal, academic, and professional success.
Stephens College encourages strong networks and provides opportunities designed to help students succeed.
Affordable Excellence
We believe a world-class education should also be affordable. We offer scholarships and grants — not loans! — that make tuition free for qualifying students.
Innovative Learning
Our revolutionary Block Schedule offers students an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in one course at a time. They focus on what matters: learning, experimenting, and preparing for the future.
Pet Friendly Campus
Stephens is a home-away-from-home. That means pets are welcome here, too. We also offer a one-of-a-kind fostering program for those interested in caring for a pet as it waits for its “forever home.”
