It’s in Lexington, Virginia—a small, historic mountain town. Beautiful campus (a National Historic Landmark), classic architecture, a cozy community—it feels like stepping back in time in the best possible way
You’ll likely be living on campus in one of the systems managed by Housing & Residence Life, especially your first year. If you go off-campus later, stay alert: the values around safety and community differ beyond campus boundaries, so be smart and resourceful
It’s small but vibrant—schools, beautiful valley setting, accessible yet quiet. Greeks, arts, outdoors, hiking—not big-city chaos, but enough to keep you engaged. Good blend of calm and community
