The Centre Commitment guarantees three things:
If a student meets the College’s academic and social expectations and is unable to secure the components of the Centre Commitment within four consecutive years of enrollment, the College will provide up to an additional year of study tuition-free.

When it comes to majors, Centre offers real benefits. Since we encourage self-designed majors, your choices are virtually unlimited. (Examples of recent student-designed majors include design and culture, social justice studies, religion and the performing arts, and public policy.)
You may also choose to complete a double major during your four years at Centre. Multiple majors make you more attractive to employers and increase career options for the future.
