The University of Redlands is a small, prestigious institution located at the edge of the Los Angles metro area, where the cityscape begins to give way to mountains and desert. Founded in 1907, the university has developed into one of the region’s best, implementing new and unique learning initiatives over time. In addition to traditional programs offered by the College of Arts and Sciences and the Schools of Business, Education, and Music, Redlands offers less common academic opportunities through the Center for Integrative Studies and the Center for Spatial Studies. The natural attractions and scenery of the Inland Empire are all around the university: The nearby mountains create a beautiful backdrop and the rugged wilderness of San Bernardino National Forest is close at hand for weekend adventure anytime. Downtown Redlands is only a few blocks to the west, making it easy to hop over and take advantage of the terrific selection of restaurants, bars, shops, and coffeehouses in town. Los Angeles proper is only about 90 minutes down the 10, putting one of America’s most exciting cities at your fingertips.
