THE HAVERGAL EDUCATION
HAVERGAL COLLEGE
A Havergal education provides an exceptional opportunity. It sets the stage for future success and lays
the foundation for a lifetime of discovery and learning. Our students are taught how to think, learn and
question. Most importantly, Havergal students discover themselves and the possibilities in the world
around them.
OUR MISSION
Havergal’s mission is to prepare young women to make a difference. This means an education that
provides opportunities for students to embark on a path of collaborative discovery and to:
•
Find and pursue their passions;
•
Engage in the world;
•
Develop their courage, creativity and leadership;
•
Become prepared for thoughtful engagement in their communities; and
•
Develop capacity to question with rigour and accuracy.
The hallmarks of a Havergal education are enriched, broad-based educational programs and rigorous
academic standards, a stimulating and supportive learning environment and a strong community that
fosters the qualities of leadership, good citizenship and integrity. These pillars of excellence prepare
our graduates to be leaders of the future and have positioned Havergal at the forefront of women’s
education for more than 100 years.
THE HAVERGAL EDUCATION
A Havergal education means superb quality in teaching; it means learning and living the principles upon
which a civil and compassionate society are built; and it means developing lifelong friendships with
people across the globe.
Expansive in scope and content, Havergal’s liberal arts education encourages students to think
critically, independently and creatively; to experience and understand a complex, interconnected world;
to recognize how important an understanding of the past is to exploring possibilities for the future; and
to seek and achieve balance and well-being.
Our commitment to our students is honoured in several important ways. Havergal students learn in
an environment designed to bring out their best in thought, word and deed. In ways large and small,
faculty and staff are focused on our students’ well-being: they work to help them understand the
transitions in their lives, to make purposeful choices and to take reasoned action. Havergal is a place
where we appreciate the importance of celebrating creativity and imagination and recognize and
respect the capabilities of others.
