Dartmouth College
Hanover, NH
Overview
Dartmouth thrusts you into a rugged, collaborative Ivy League world where snowy hikes and intimate seminars shape tenacious thinkers who own their paths.
Identity
The school's legacy as the "Green" Ivy stems from its 1866 adoption of forest-green colors, symbolizing the surrounding wilderness that defines daily life—hiking Moosilauke Ravine or paddling the Connecticut River isn't optional; it's oxygen.
