- As the oldest educational institution for women in the United States, Salem boasts a proud history of
fostering independence in women. Our students have the freedom to explore who they are and who they want to be. They enjoy
state-of-the-art facilities for the sciences, athletics and the performing arts; manage their campus through a dynamic
Student Government Association; and participate in over 50 clubs and activities.
- Students also complete the Salem Signature , an innovative four-year series of courses that truly
distinguishes Salem from other colleges. The Salem Signature leads students along a path of self-knowledge, community service
and career preparation, ensuring that our graduates are fully equipped to excel in the world.
- Salem’s Honor Code places a high value on integrity and trust, creating a learning community where
achievement is the only status symbol. Our areas of distinction include the Women in Science and Mathematics program, the
Center for Women Writers, the internationally known School of Music, and the month-long January Term, during which many
students complete internships or study abroad.
- Salem College’s 64-acre campus is located in the heart of downtown Winston-Salem in the Old Salem
historic district. The 18th century Moravian village of Salem is now an internationally recognized living history museum
complex. Our campus includes five buildings that date from the original town of Salem, and we share Salem Square with Old
Salem and with Home Moravian Church (built in 1800).
