- Founded in 1887, Occidental is one of the oldest liberal arts colleges on the West Coast. Occidental is a small, highly selective and diverse college in a big city.
- Occidental offers you a unique combination of a rigorous academic program, small size, a diverse student body, and all the resources of Los Angeles. Our interdisciplinary, hands-on approach to the liberal arts challenges you to develop a wide range of skills; our close-knit community truly makes us what one college guide calls “an urban oasis.” Our location offers advantages few other liberal arts colleges can match. Our students enjoy a close-knit community in Eagle Rock’s small-town setting, and the cultural, educational, and recreational resources of a major metropolis.
- The student can major in 30 areas; including nine interdisciplinary majors - double major, declare a minor, or choose a self-designed course of study.
- Profile last updated: 00/00/0000.
