Why they chose Beloit College

Ella Aizeki
Longmont, CO
Undecided

Ella and her friends enjoy hanging out in her split double room in Bushnell.

“I wanted to throw myself into different disciplines and learn about different things so I would find out what I want to major in. I love that the classes are so fun here. There are different ways we can approach science and math or different focuses to literature.”

Ian Jacobs

Biochemistry

Ian had a general interest in biology when he arrived at Beloit. As a sports fan and Lacrosse pla...

“Lacrosse is often a very frat-like sport at a lot of colleges. But Beloit’s team members are really eclectic and serious about academics. That was attractive to me.”

“My writing process is so informed by Beloit. I was taking one or two classes about American history or politics and then that’s all I would write about. Whenever I get lost or I’m feeling like I can’t write about something, I always can go back to that place.”

  • Professor Joy Beckman shows an art piece to students in the Wright Museum of Art.
    Beloit is home to two teaching museums — the Logan Museum of Anthropology and the Wright Museum of Art. Students are an active part of both museums, helping curate exhibits, identifying objects, and preserving materials.
Student life

We’re multi-hyphenates

Actors and athletes, sci-fi fans and sorority siblings, activists and a cappella singers.

Beloit College students seldom limit themselves to one interest or activity. Whatever you’re into, you’ll find a supportive campus community that comes together because of, not in spite of, our differences.

Students lead more than 40 clubs and organizations, many of which become communities within the larger Beloit College community, and all of which make an original — dare we say magical — contribution (including performances, celebrations, events, service opportunities, and more) to the life of campus.
