Your Elmhurst
journey starts here.

Elmhurst students are active, passionate and engaged in the world around them.
I'm...
- the events chair for the Spiritual Life Council and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority
- passionate about stopping animal cruelty
- a huge fan of Harry Potter and Game of Thrones
I love how small Elmhurst is, and that if I ever need help, it’s easy to find.

I'm...
- mastering the art of walking backwards as a "Jaywalker" student tour guide
- going to present psychology research at a national conference

Elmhurst values diversity—it’s the foundation of everything we try to do as a college and as a community.

What I like about Elmhurst is that it’s small but not too small. There’s always something to do.
