At the University of Memphis, we are Driven by Doing. Driven by Doing isn`t just a slogan. It`s what you`ll see happening all around you at the UofM. Every. Single. Day. We`ve had a lot of firsts here in Memphis. But our most memorable years are yet to come. We are all about forward progress. Yours. That`s what Memphis does. For over 100 years, the UofM has been a catalyst for progress in the city of Memphis, the state of Tennessee and the surrounding Mid-South region. From its inception in 1912 as a “normal school” dedicated to the education of public school teachers to its role today as an educator of technologically savvy, socially conscious graduates who face a complex world, the UofM has always been an integral component of the greater community. Exceptional students from 50 states and 82 countries choose the University of Memphis as their collegiate home. Approximately 22,000 students attend the UofM, including more than 2,200 first-time freshmen and 2,500 students who live in university housing. In 2013, U.S. News and World Report ranked the University of Memphis among the top 10 in the country for student internship placements and lauded it as one of the top 13 for its teacher preparation programs. Additionally, its graduate programs in audiology, speech-language pathology and rehabilitation counseling are consistently ranked among the top 20 in the nation by U.S. News. As a doctoral-granting metropolitan research university, the UofM is committed to excellence in undergraduate, graduate and professional education; in the discovery and dissemination of knowledge; in engaged scholarship to the community, state and nation; and in the preparation of a diverse student population for successful careers and meaningful participation in a global society. Ever forward looking, the University of Memphis is poised to enter one of its most historic and productive periods. Having just celebrated its centennial anniversary, its faculty, staff, alumni and benefactors have never been more willing, able and generous in their efforts to build an academic environment that makes a lifelong impact. Foremost among the university`s goals is to recruit outstanding faculty, enroll motivated students and provide distinctive learning experiences so its students are prepared for successful and meaningful participation in a diverse society. Currently, the UofM offers 17 bachelor`s degrees in more than 250 areas of study, master`s degrees in 54 subjects and doctoral degrees in 25 disciplines.

With 2,104 students participating in fall 2013, the honors program is the largest in the state of Tennessee. In addition to the main campus in the heart of East Memphis, the University of Memphis opened a campus in Jackson, Tenn., in fall 2011 at what was formerly Lambuth University. It also has off-site campuses in Bartlett, Collierville, Cordova, Covington, Dyersburg, Jackson, Millington and Whitehaven. One of the University`s strongest contributions to the community is its alumni. Many have become nationally and internationally renowned in their fields as corporate executives, elected officials, award-winning actors and best-selling authors.

University of Mary Washington

Located in Fredericksburg, VA – between the nation`s capitol and state`s capitol – University of Mary Washington offers more than sixty undergraduate majors, minors, and courses of study through the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, and College of Education. This isn`t an education on auto-pilot. We`re one of the top public liberal arts and sciences universities in the nation. (Just check out our rankings in the most prestigious selective guides.) We`ll challenge you to make the connections that aren`t obvious: the beauty in science and the logic in theater. We`ll help you imagine broadly and think deeply. We`ll encourage you to look for the wisdom hidden inside every mistake you`ve ever made. Don`t worry – you`ll also have plenty of time for Facebook, Frisbee, and fun. This is a close-knit campus where friends are like family and opportunity bubbles up all around you. You`ll find yourself laughing out loud in the residence halls, kicking back in the Eagle`s Nest, working out in the fitness center, and generally having a great time wherever you run into good friends, which is pretty much everywhere. But we don`t make things any simpler than they should be, because you`re not going to college to be less than you are. With innovative and accessible master teachers, you`ll be inspired to think critically, engage meaningfully, and communicate effectively. Our small, highly interactive classes motivate students to prepare for, participate in, and embrace new knowledge so that they get the most out of their educational investment. Our graduates are world ready. They`re what employers are looking for: a resourceful, articulate, adaptable, disciplined problem-solver and critical thinker.
