About St. John's College

St. John’s College is a community of 1,000 students engaged in a rigorous exploration of great books and big ideas. We famously have been called “the most contrarian college in America,” “the most rigorous college in America,” and “the most intellectual college in America.” No matter how you define us, St. John’s is unlike any other.

At St. John’s, students share a common curriculum centered on reading and discussing some of the most important thinkers over the last 3,000 years, including Plato, Shakespeare, Euclid, Nietzsche, Einstein, Austen, and Du Bois—to name just a few. Every class is a small, interdisciplinary discussion about the books led by the best teaching faculty in the world. Students take classes in philosophy, classics, literature, politics, biology, physics, mathematics, music, history, and more, drawing connections between disciplines and graduating with a single interdisciplinary major in the liberal arts. With a 7:1 student to faculty ratio, the college regularly ranks among the best for undergraduate teaching and most accessible faculty.

St Johns College Annapolis is a private, nonprofit college in the suburb of Annapolis, Maryland. St. John's College was founded in 1696. The college enrolls around 541 students a year, including 462 undergrads.
