Austin College is a private, coeducational, liberal arts institution affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA). Our 70-acre campus is located in Sherman, Texas, north of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, offering professional and cultural opportunities to Austin College students and alumni.
To those committed to an intellectually rigorous, values-oriented education, we are a premier college that provides transformative experiences and extraordinary opportunities to learn to think complexly and creatively about yourself, your community, and the world.
Our focus on engaging minds begins with fostering a love of learning through our friendly, supportive, and challenging faculty members. Then we encourage students to change lives—their own and those of others—through service, research, and travel opportunities.
