 With
a legacy of learning dating back more than 150 years, Longwood University has developed a lifestyle of learning
that extends far beyond the classroom. Founded in 1839 in Farmville, Virginia,
Longwood University is a coeducational, comprehensive state institution
offering programs leading to bachelor's and master's degrees in a wide
variety of subjects.

Today, Longwood has an undergraduate enrollment of 3,900 students, combining
the ambiance of a small, private college with the cost benefits of a
public institution. Better still, Longwood was cited recently as one
of the nation's best college buys in America's 100 Best College Buys,
a national publication that profiles schools that are the highest rated
academically but have the lowest annual costs. Small classes (avg.=25)
and a favorable faculty/student ratio (1:19) provide an opportunity
for both professors and students to develop close, personal relationships.
