Student Conducting Experiments

Learn with Passion.
Live with Purpose.

At Allegheny College, you’ll challenge yourself to think bigger by choosing a major and a minor in two completely different fields—like Business and Music, Biology and French, or Environmental Science and Creative Writing.

These bold, unexpected combinations expand your perspective and prepare you to lead a life filled with purpose, achievement, and impact.

You also benefit from our pre-professional pathways, accelerated master’s and dual-degree partnerships, and resumé-boosting microcredentials.

Testimonials

Headshot of Charlie Gibson

My involvement with music has helped me to develop creative thinking within physics and other areas of my life, and I have also been able to apply the analytical aspect of physics to my music to help me play more technically and understand the theory much better.

Allegheny’s rigorous and well-rounded environment taught me how to thrive under pressure, a skill that has been invaluable in medical school and will continue to serve me throughout my career.

Samantha Cooper ‘20, UPMC resident intern

I think I’ve always been an artist before a scientist because I’m so good at narrative advising and anthropomorphizing biology because there’s so much to look at and apply to a human lens. Biology itself is an art – the things that our cells do are art, and are so masterfully detailed in a way that we can’t even really understand.

During my four years, Allegheny College has profoundly impacted me as a person and a student. The College’s rigorous academic environment centered around interdisciplinary learning has enhanced my critical thinking skills and allowed me to gain a deeper appreciation for lifelong learning.
