Woodbury University has earned a reputation as a leading creative university thanks to nationally ranked programs in its School of Architecture and School of Media, Culture & Design.
What makes the university unique among its peers are the unparalleled academic offerings of its School of Business and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. At Woodbury students acquire a well-rounded, world-class education that prepares them for a life others can only dream of—a life where you can carve out your own path and truly make a difference.
Woodbury’s location in Southern California—the global epicenter of creativity and influence—and its connection to the most iconic and innovative companies in the country give the school a unique edge. Its internship program (required) means students gain practical work experience before graduation.
What’s your dream job? Working on feature films? Designing games? Animating a series? Many of Woodbury’s students not only intern with leaders in these industries but accept full-time positions with them upon graduation. Or maybe you have a mission—a cause about which you feel passionate. Designing sustainable housing for underserved communities; using communications to influence public opinion and drive social change; being the business mind at the table that makes progress happen. Thanks to the exceptional education offered at Woodbury, many students go on to enjoy extraordinary and fulfilling careers. Many even start their own businesses.
Woodbury’s faculty are among the most professionally accomplished in higher education, and its 9:1 faculty-to-student ratio guarantees unhindered access to their expertise and insights.

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences even offers an Interdisciplinary Studies major where faculty collaborate with students to create unique course plans based on the student’s passions and life goals.

The Bottom Line
The truth is that Woodbury is not for everyone. If you’re looking for football teams and pep rallies, the school is likely not for you. If you’re looking for a never-ending party or a place where you can pick up just enough lingo to fake it until you make it, Woodbury would save you the effort of applying. But if you’re passionate about your work and maybe have felt unheard, this university gets you. If you’ve struggled in a standardized testing environment but know that you have something powerful to share, Woodbury can help you.
If you’re serious about your future and want to learn from the best, most accomplished minds in the world, Woodbury welcomes you. Talk to Woodbury’s admissions team and find out why Woodbury University is your school.
