Franklin & Marshall's 180-acre campus is nestled in the historic and vibrant city of Lancaster, Pa. Our facilities are as functional as they are inspiring. In addition to the world-class educational buildings (listed in the Campus Life/Facilities section), the campus is home to the Caroline Steinman Numan Arboretum, four performing-arts centers, a Barnes & Noble bookstore, four College Houses encompassing 11 residence halls and an ever-expanding athletic complex. A variety of dining halls, eateries and cafes offer students any type of cuisine or satisfy a broad range of dietary requirements. The College also features a kosher, international, vegan/vegetarian and organic menu that is available in the Benjamin Franklin Dining Hall.

Within walking distance of campus, you will find a large variety of shops, art galleries, music venues and restaurants. Beyond the city, you will discover rolling hills, open farmlands, nature preserves and parks where you can hike, bike and explore.
