About
History
Drew was established in 1867 as a seminary, the antecedent of today’s Drew Theological School. In 1928, a gift led to the addition of the College of Liberal Arts, which began as a small college for men, became co-educational during the 1940s and grew significantly in the 1960s. In the early 1980s, it was granted what is still only the fourth Phi Beta Kappa chapter in the state.

We teach students to:
- Understand the relationship between their academic studies and careers
- Make sound career decisions based on an evaluation of their goals, interests, abilities, and values
- Test possible career choices through internships and part-time jobs
- Prepare for the job search process
- Research post-graduate educational opportunities
