Bryn Mawr Stories

"Every course I take continues to confirm my passion for biochemistry and French, offering new opportunities to develop my understanding of each subject from a different perspective."

"Bryn Mawr students are a force to be reckoned with—changemakers may seem like a cliché term, but our students are really driven to create the world they want to see."

"We had a self-uniting marriage on campus in the sunken garden in April 2018, our senior year. BMC was a great environment for us both, for me as a queer woman and for Liam who is trans masc." - Rose Kooper-Johnson '18

“I knew that something I wanted in a community was to feel part of something bigger than myself, and that’s here at Bryn Mawr.”

"Maybe kissing under the Rock Arch on our first month anniversary was magical all along."

"I never thought of myself as a really independent person, but I feel like college really allows you to explore that."

"There are so many different interests and parts of yourself you’ll find at Bryn Mawr that you don't even know exist yet."

"My college search wasn’t only about where I would get the most playing time or which team I liked the most—a lot of my decision was about the fact that I really liked Bryn Mawr as a school, I really liked the people here, and I wanted to be here whether or not I was playing soccer."

"At Bryn Mawr, there’s never a question if a student is capable of something—it’s assumed that they are."

"Enjoy the process of exploring and growing, it will only give you more clarity and more chances to discover what you really love learning!"
