About

Diversity & Inclusion

We are committed to fostering an equitable and inclusive campus culture that intentionally values all students’ personal, intellectual and academic growth. Diversity enriches our university community and is instrumental to our institutional success and fulfilling the university’s mission. We will continually strive to work together to address future challenges in a way that removes barriers to success and promotes a culture of inclusivity, compassion and mutual respect.

Study Locally, Live Globally

Hop on the Metro and within minutes you can be touring the White House, kayaking on the Potomac, attending an opening night performance at the Source or exploring the beauty of nature in Rock Creek Park. Washington, DC may be the capital of the United States, but it is also home to the world’s embassies, languages and cuisines; the headquarters of major think tanks, NGOs and non-profits; the heart of American politics and a rich source of inspiration to writers, film-makers, musicians and artists of every genre.

A city of neighborhoods, each with its own history and traditions, there’s always something to do, to see, to try in Washington, DC. That’s extra-credit enrichment you can’t find anywhere else.
