School Notes:
- Mitchell College is a coeducational, private residential institution offering associate and bachelor degree programs in the liberal arts and professional areas. The college is dedicated to providing a challenging education in a caring and cooperative environment for all students, including those with untapped potential and those with diagnosed learning disabilities.
- On September 14, 1938, a group of New London, Connecticut citizens founded New London Junior College as a private, nonprofit, coeducational, two-year college in their community. In 1950 the name Mitchell College was officially adopted by the trustees to honor the descendants of the Alfred Mitchell family, principal benefactors of the College since its founding. Today, Mitchell College is a thriving institution of higher education that grants both associate and baccalaureate degrees to students from the greater New London community, as well as from all over the nation and around the world.
- For 25 years, Mitchell College had been a nationally recognized leader in providing academic support for students with diagnosed learning disabilities and those with untapped potential. Mitchell College truly helps students to reach out beyond their previous challenge and identify and apply the strategies that best fit their own unique learning style.
- For more than half a century, Mitchell College has proudly fielded intercollegiate teams with an equal emphasis on men's and women's athletics. And what makes our program special is that our athletes enjoy success - not just on the playing field but also in the classroom. A member of NCAA Division III athletics, the tradition of the scholar-athlete is not only alive, but thriving at Mitchell College!
