The University of Chicago College is one of the most influential undergraduate institutions of liberal learning in the world. Devoted to advancing knowledge and to encouraging the habits of critical reflection, rigorous discussion, and uninhibited debate about ideas as a way of life, UChicago affirms the power of imaginative educational practices to advance creative learning and to enrich civic life.
UChicago is a liberal arts college nestled within a larger research institution. We were home to the first self-sustaining nuclear reaction as part of the Manhattan Project, the first Heisman Trophy, and the first sociology department. We have a rich history of making history because UChicago is a place where people love to learn! We also have $1 milkshakes on Wednesdays :)
