Finch College

Finch College was a private women’s college in New York City, founded in 1914 and closed in 1976. It focused on liberal arts education, emphasizing personalized learning and artistic development. Known for its small class sizes and close student-faculty relationships, Finch nurtured women’s intellectual growth and leadership. Over time, like many small colleges, it faced financial challenges and changing educational demands, leading to its closure. Today, Finch College is remembered for its distinctive approach to women’s education and its contributions to arts and culture during its active years.
