We are delighted that your daughter and your family are considering Salem College. Having supported and nurtured her through her school years thus far, you are considering the importance of her next step. College is one of the most valuable investments you can make in her future, and Salem is prepared to invest in her.
The comparative advantages of a Salem education are enormous. Here she will find an environment where there are no barriers to her success, an 11:1 student/teacher ratio with faculty mentors who truly care about her learning and her goals, and opportunities for her to gain the independence and the confidence to succeed in today’s competitive world.
Salem’s distinguished national reputation will open doors for her. Our network of alumnae and professional mentors span the globe – and they stand eager to assist Salem women, personally and professionally, in a diverse global society.
She will graduate from Salem ready to hit the ground running. She will possess both the sense of direction and the relevant experience to handle whatever comes her way. She will have professional internships (at least one, probably two or three) under her belt. She will have completed meaningful service learning and will perhaps have studied abroad. Our Salem women graduate with resumes that boast more significant experiences than their counterparts from larger universities. And our outcomes are remarkable:
The stories of a few of our young graduates illustrate well that Salem is not just for four years – Salem is for a lifetime. We hope you will encourage your young woman to consider Salem for the investment of a lifetime.
