Short History
Founded as the Philadelphia School of Design for Women in 1848, Moore College of Art & Design is the only historically women’s art and design college in the United States. Our dynamic programs and uniquely inclusive environment foster creative excellence and amplify artistic potential, preparing our graduates to thrive in the ever-evolving landscape of art and design. Moore recently adopted a new undergraduate admissions policy open to otherwise qualified applicants: (i) assigned female at birth; or (ii) who self-identify as women, trans women, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming individuals, at the time of application.
