Lyon College is a selective, independent, undergraduate, residential college affilliated with the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). Its curriculum, centered on the liberal arts, offers fifteen majors and twelve pre-professional programs. Student-led Honor and Social Councils guide campus ethics and behavior and combine with a challenging academic program to foster critical, creative thought and ethical, spiritual growth, preparing students for fulfilling lives. Students form close relationships with award-winning professors both in and outside the classroom, and a lively outdoors program lets students take full advantage of Lyon's setting on the eastern edge of the Ozarks.

If our academic reputation isn’t enough to make your decision easy, a visit to our beautiful campus in the foothills of the Ozarks should. Our 136-acre campus provides our students with ample space and access to the outdoors. Whether rowing across Bryan Lake, speeding down the zip-line ropes course, mountain biking campus trails, playing our 18-hole disc golf course, or just relaxing on the quad, you’ll find your place. Not to mention we have award-winning faculty and some of the lowest debt rates in the state. Plan your visit today—it’s worth the trip!
