Spelman, a pioneer in leadership for Black women, promotes academic excellence in the liberal arts. The predominantly residential, private college provides an academic climate that develops students' intellectual, ethical, and leadership potential. The College is a member of the Atlanta University Center consortium, and Spelman students enjoy the benefits of a small college while having access to the resources of the five other participating institutions.
The educational program at the College is designed to give students a comprehensive liberal arts background through study in the fine arts, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. Students are encouraged to think critically and creatively and to improve their communicative, quantitative, and technological fields. The academic program prepares students for graduate and professional study as well as entry into the world of work.
Spelman seeks to empower the total person. The College provides an environment that enables self-confidence, cultural enrichment, and spiritual well being. This environment attempts to instill in students an appreciation for the many cultures of the world, a willingness to serve the community, and a sense of responsibility for bringing about positive social change.
