Saint Mary's College of California
Saint Mary's College of California is a private Catholic, Lasallian liberal arts college in Moraga, California, in the San Francisco Bay Area. Founded in 1863 by Archbishop Joseph Alemany and transferred to the De La Salle Brothers in 1868, the college relocated to its current 420-acre Moraga campus in 1928. It is the only California institution and the only Catholic institution included in the Loren Pope book Colleges That Change Lives.
Saint Mary's organises its academic life around four schools — the School of Liberal Arts, the School of Science, the School of Economics and Business Administration, and the Kalmanovitz School of Education — offering roughly 40 undergraduate majors and 36 graduate and professional studies programs. The signature Collegiate Seminar and the Integral Curriculum of Liberal Arts (Great Books) anchor a strong liberal-arts core across every degree.
The college follows a distinctive 4-1-4 academic calendar: a fall semester, a four-week immersive January Term, and a spring semester. Class sizes are small (average 19 students, 10:1–13:1 student-faculty ratio), and the campus blends California Churrigueresque and Spanish Colonial Revival architecture across the Moraga hills, with all first-year students living in residence.
