Nestled on 700 acres in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Ferrum College is large enough to offer more than 50 areas of study β including one of the countryβs first environmental studies program β yet intimate enough where faculty and staff can work with you individually.
With a working farm, hiking trails, and a museum dedicated to Virginia folklore, the school provides a tranquil, idyllic setting. At the same time, itβs a vibrant, fast-paced campus with sports, clubs, outdoor activities, Greek Life, and the arts. Whatever your passion β anything from caving to chemistry to caring for others β Ferrum is the place to pursue it.
