Randolph College will provide a trajectory to success, contribution, and fulfillment. From its inception in 1891, as Randolph-Macon Woman’s College, Randolph College has recognized the value of the “life more abundant”—not for personal gratification or in a materialistic sense, but as an expression of the importance of appreciating the world in all its complexity, engaging with others, achieving personal growth, and meeting the needs of the community.
In support of this objective, Randolph College students will receive individual attention that promotes the personal and intellectual growth of each student. They will develop lifelong skills, set and achieve goals, and explore new areas of interest. Furthermore, they will appreciate the importance of serving others as well as meeting personal ambitions.
