| School mission: | Transylvania University offers a high quality liberal arts education through a personal approach to learning characterized by small classes, a caring faculty, and a supportive campus community. Six Kentucky Professor of the Year awards in the last nine years underscore our faculty quality and commitment to excellence in undergraduate teaching. Transylvania's location in Lexington, Ky., population 260,000, creates numerous student internship opportunities. An innovative May term lets students focus on one course, which is often combined with travel abroad. Founded in 1780 as the nation's sixteenth college, Transylvania is among an elite handful of institutions that pioneered higher education in America. |
