Denison University is an independent, coeducational, residential college of liberal arts and sciences. It is one of the earliest colleges to be established in the old "Northwest Territory,"​ west of the Allegheny Mountains and north of the Ohio River. The university is a leading liberal arts college where faculty and students collaborate in research, civic engagement, and cultivation of independent thinking. As a leader among the nation's top residential liberal arts colleges, Denison has earned a reputation for academic rigor that is rivaled only by its commitment to preparing students for a lifetime of personal, professional and civic success.
