CAMPUS SUMMARY

Founded in 1852 and established in Oakland in 1871 Mills College is an independent liberal arts college for women, with graduate programs for women and men. Mills prepares students for a lifetime of independent learning. With our excellent faculty, small classes, and internship programs, Mills students are challenged daily to achieve their potential. The knowledge that graduates gain at Mills is much more than facts and statistics. Graduates leave Mills with a sense of how much they can accomplish and the skills to realize their goals. Mills is committed to creating an intellectual experience second to none, in an environment that values creativity and social justice. We expect our graduates, like our faculty, to be leaders, thinkers and doers.
