Rosemont College, founded by the Society of the Holy Child Jesus, is a coeducational liberal arts institution in the Catholic tradition just 11 miles from Philadelphia. It has 26 academic areas of study and offers honors, three-year, and dual degree options. Rosemont College has a test-optional admissions policy, which is known as the ROCO Option. Through the ROCO Option, students applying for admission who have a weighted, cumulative grade point average of 3.0 (B) or higher have the choice whether to submit their SAT/ACT scores as part of the new policy. These prospective students who select the ROCO Option are then interviewed by an admissions counselor rather than having their standardized test scores reviewed.

The College also offers collaborative programs with schools such as Drexel University College of Nursing and Health Professions, Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and University of the Sciences. Rosemont is well known for its innovative General Education Curriculum, which combines a carefully chosen selection of classes with 21st-century educational practices. Rosemont doesn’t just train students for the workplace; it cultivates students’ cultural, religious, and artistic sensibilities in order to improve the quality of their lives. Students develop a sense of social responsibility, strong intellectual and practical skills that span all areas of study, and a demonstrated ability to apply everything they’ve learned in real-world settings. Here, the power of small leads to big opportunities, where, as of July 2018, 92% of May graduates of the undergraduate college are employed or are attending graduate or professional school.

Rosemont students have many opportunities to learn outside the classroom. Formally through experiential learning—internships, study abroad, service learning, and undergraduate research—and informally through campus clubs and organizations, the Cornelian Service Corp, and athletics.

Rosemont College’s reputation is built on an embracing respect for diversity and individuality. Its heart is in the encouragement and support the entire community gives its students in their academic, athletic, or personal lives. With a record of academic excellence, the College bases its character in the quality and depth of the education its faculty provides. Rosemont knows who each student is, what his or her goals and future aspirations are, and how its community can help them achieve those goals.
