View company profile

Founded in 1853, Washington University in St. Louis has a rich history intertwined with the growth of St. Louis itself. In the early 1850s, 17 prominent St. Louis business, religious, and political leaders saw the need for a Midwestern institute for higher learning. However, though they all were successful in their fields, none of them had experience in the business of establishing and growing a university. It was in view of considerations like these that a few far-sighted and large-hearted men laid the foundation of Washington University.

Today, while proud to continue offering evening classes for local St. Louisans, WashU's nine schools serve 17,000 undergraduate and graduate/professional students who come from more than 100 countries and all 50 states. Washington University remains committed to providing quality education, conducting impactful research, and engaging with the community, making it a leading institution in higher education.
