Brandeis

We welcomed the Class of 2029 to campus at the end of August, with students arriving from 29 countries and 41 states (plus D.C.). See the class profile of this year's newest Brandeisians.
Brandeis now offers Early Action. This non-binding agreement is an alternative to Early Decision I, and we hope you will take the opportunity to submit (and hear back) early. The application deadline for Early Decision I and Early Action is November 3.
Construction for our new residence hall started this summer, and we look forward to the opening in the spring of 2027. Plans for the new Center for Jewish Life are well underway, providing a new home for Brandeis Hillel.
We recently announced an exciting academic realignment on campus will integrate our professional and liberal arts curriculums on campus. The new schools are the School of Arts, Humanities, and Culture, the School of Business and Economics, the School of Science, Engineering, and Technology, and the School of Social Sciences and Policy.
Brandeis continues to excel in preparing students for internships and job opportunities. During Orientation, our career services team began working with new first-year students, engaging them to think creatively about how a Brandeis education will shape their futures.
The Brandeis Commitment has been updated to include a four-year guarantee of total scholarship, provided there is no major change to the family's financial circumstances or number in undergraduate college. We hope this addition makes financial planning easier for your students and their families.
Finally, on September 10, Brandeis launched a new vision for American higher education that pairs a core curriculum for the 21st century with a competency-based transcript, combined professional and undergraduate schools, and an unprecedented focus on applied learning and career preparation. We are excited for the opportunity this will provide for our students and look forward to sharing more details in the coming months.

Willamette

New Academic Programs

This fall, we'll launch the following academic programs:

Industrial Engineering

Among the most in-demand areas of engineering, industrial engineers are deeply concerned with how people interact with systems. Drawing from expertise and courses in business management, mathematics, and physics, this new program will allow students to complete a Bachelor of Science degree in four years and be prepared to start their careers. Our program is fully accredited with the addition of ABET accreditation to follow the first graduating cohort in 2027. Many of our graduates are already working in this field, including at Tillamook Creamery, SpaceX, and Boeing. Learn more about our Industrial Engineering program.

We've also added a Bachelor of Science option for our major in Computer Science, which is also ABET compliant.

Musical Theatre

Our new Musical Theatre major offers students a well-rounded, performance-driven curriculum in the context of Willamette's liberal arts environment. Students will receive in-depth training in music theory, vocal technique, and musicianship through our music department. In acting courses, they will emphasize character development, stage presence, audition preparation, and the unique storytelling style of musical theatre. Through dance training, students study musical theatre dance styles, movement, and performance techniques.

3+2 Bachelor/MFA

Joining our line up of dual degree programs are three opportunities in partnership with Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA), a part of Willamette since 2021. Students may choose from any undergraduate major at Willamette College in Salem and during the junior year will apply to one of three graduate programs at PNCA in Portland. These include:

MA in Critical Studies: Gain skills in analytics, research, writing, communication, and critical analysis while learning from prominent artists and scholars.
MFA in Visual Studies: Students can choose to focus on one medium or explore mediums to refine, expand, and develop their creative practice.
MFA in Print Media: Through our facilities, students can access equipment to hone skills related to bookmaking, lithography, screen printing, and more.

Explore Our Academic Programs

We are always happy to hear from you, and your students, with questions about Willamette, our application process, or our perspectives on college admissions.
