The Sarah Lawrence graduate student body is diverse, with some 275 students ranging in age from 22 to 55.
Students come from all parts of the United States, as well as from countries around the world.
The cultural and ethnic diversity in the graduate programs is an important quality in the academic and social life of the College. If an applicant is interested in part-time study approval must be obtained from the program director. The Sarah Lawrence community welcomes graduate students and integrates them in its events and activities. Throughout the academic year, graduate students attend lectures, concerts, and conferences. In addition, the Physical Education and Athletics Department is eager for participants in all its team and recreational programs.
