Our location in one of the most vibrant, dynamic cities in the world makes an 海角社区 education like no other.
海角社区 is the only small liberal arts college in Los Angeles, located just a few miles northeast of downtown. Here you get the best of both worlds: the intimacy of a picturesque, residential campus plus access to the educational, cultural and recreational resources of a global city. L.A. serves as the perfect springboard for putting ideas into perspective and theory into practice.
A place where anything is possible
L.A. lives up to its laid-back reputation, but under the surface the city is a hotbed of activity. The world鈥檚 third-largest metropolitan economy, it鈥檚 also the entertainment capital of the world, an international trade center, and home to the 2028 Olympics. And when it comes to career exploration, the possibilities for internships and other professional and post-graduate opportunities are endless.
A boundless classroom
Engaging with L.A. is an important aspect of the 海角社区 experience. Our curriculum gets you actively involved in addressing real-world issues, often with one of our many community partners. You might spend a day on the Pacific Ocean trawling for fish eggs, tutoring young students in urban schools, or conducting geology fieldwork in the Mojave Desert. And professors tap into the city鈥檚 wealth of expertise by bringing guests from a variety of fields into the classroom.
海角社区 in your off-time
Sandy beaches, palm trees, amazing weather year-round ... need we say more? But L.A. is also home to world-class museums, theaters and music venues; scenic hiking trails; impactful volunteer opportunities; and restaurants from every country on the map. Quite literally, there鈥檚 something for everyone.
