Bard College is a four-year residential college of liberal arts and sciences located in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, on a 540-acre campus in the Hudson River Valley. It offers a Bachelor of Arts degree across nearly 50 programs organized into four divisions: Arts; Languages and Literature; Science, Mathematics, and Computing; and Social Studies, with pathways that include dual-degree options such as a five-year BA/BS in economics and finance and the Bard College Conservatory of Music, where students earn a music degree alongside another liberal arts or sciences degree. Over the past three decades the institution has expanded beyond its undergraduate roots to include high school and graduate programs and to establish a network of regional, national, and global satellites, along with initiatives like the Bard Prison Initiative and Bard High School Early Colleges.

Within the higher education landscape, Bard emphasizes rigorous scholarship alongside civic and global engagement. Beyond its main undergraduate program, the college has extended its reach through high school and graduate offerings and a network of regional, national, and global satellites that support its mission. In June 2026 Bard joined the Future Universities Alliance, signaling a commitment to broader collaboration across the sector.
