THE POWER OF THE PACK

It’s easy to recognize a Scottie in the wild. You can tell from her confidence, her resilience, her passion—and by the iconic onyx ring on her finger.

Those rings shine in boardrooms and classrooms; in laboratories and court houses; and in small businesses, health clinics and communities around the world.

Careers, built deliberately

Agnes Scott builds careers deliberately, starting in the first semester.

By graduation, Agnes Scott students have a record, a network and a level of professional preparation that most of their peers are still working toward.

When a student rings the bell in Agnes Scott’s Main Hall tower, everyone on campus knows she secured a job or was accepted into a graduate program. For the last three years, 92% responding alumnae were “Ring-the-Bell eligible” within their first year after graduation:
