Over the Semesters
No two students have precisely the same educational journey. The College offers a range of options for fulfilling degree requirements. Students supplement their time at Bryn Mawr with study abroad, summer study, or study at other institutions in the US. While at Bryn Mawr, students may pursue independent study, Praxis courses, or courses outside the Bi-College community. Students take time away from their studies to pursue internships, travel, or for a variety of other reasons. Begin to learn about these and other options here.
