Liberal Arts and Humanities Programs in the United States
All too often, students cross the ocean to enroll at the first school they hear about or the first school to send the I-20. As you begin your college search, “Step One” is to learn about what makes higher education in the USA unique. There is no federal ranking system by which to judge or compare schools.

The question is often asked, “Why Women’s Studies?” This interdisciplinary area of study offers something few programs can at the graduate level—advanced education in a variety of fields tailored to each student’s interests and needs. Rather than studying a specific field such as biology or Victorian literature, students in Women’s Studies might choose to study in a variety of fields that meet their interests—from literature to history to communication to psychology to education to film to environmental law. What brings it all together is the focus on the role of women in these areas.
