Many fine liberal arts colleges are set in tiny towns amid apple orchards and cornfields. Elmhurst College emphatically breaks the mold. Our tranquil, classically beautiful campus is located near the heart of metropolitan Chicago. Together, our heritage and location shape a distinctive mission. Elmhurst is a fine liberal arts college that prepares students for professional life through first-hand experience with the professional world. Elmhurst is a college of the United Church of Christ that serves men and women of every faith (and of none). Elmhurst is a friendly, down-to-earth, authentic community that values and advances the life of the mind.
