About Albion College

Your hands are a tool by which you explore the world. They're also how you show people where you experience hands-on learning in Michigan. At Albion, we create an environment where you’re encouraged to dive into the things that you love.

We'll get you outside of the classroom so you can get your hands dirty with experience, and prepare yourself for the real world. Our job is to listen. To lend a hand when you need it. To give you a pat on the back, a round of applause or a gentle nudge in the right direction.

At Albion, we’ll help you grasp the opportunities of today so that you can take hold of your future.
