Washington & Jefferson College (W&J) is a private, selective liberal arts college located in Washington, Pennsylvania. It owes its history to two separate institutions, Washington College and Jefferson College which merged in 1865 but both have a history dating back to the late 1700s having been founded shortly after the American Declaration of Independence. The school has long-been considered a pillar of education in Western Pennsylvania and continues that tradition today, focussed exclusively on a broad, liberal arts programme at undergraduate level only.
