Muhlenberg College is offering a pathway to welcome UArts students to campus this fall. The College provides outstanding opportunities to students with a passionate commitment to the performing arts and a full range of creative and academic interests. We offer a comprehensive array of performance and exhibition opportunities in theatre, dance, creative writing, filmmaking, music and studio art — and we give you the tools to create your own opportunities, here at Muhlenberg and beyond.

Muhlenberg consistently ranks among the top performing arts programs in the nation. The Princeton Review ranked Muhlenberg No. 2 on its Best College Theatre list this year, and Niche named Muhlenberg No. 4 on its state-wide Best Colleges for Performing Arts list.

Located in the Lehigh Valley, a burgeoning arts community and one of the nation’s fastest-growing metro areas, Muhlenberg is also about an hour from Philadelphia and two hours from New York City. This prime location offers students frequent opportunities to attend live performances and exhibitions, as well as work with guest artists locally and beyond.

Muhlenberg is committed to helping UArts students find a home this fall.

  • Were you planning to attend UArts as a first-year student in Fall 2024? We have opened an additional 10 seats in our first year class specifically for UArts students.
  • The transfer application process is still open, and our Admissions Office staff can walk you through the process of transferring credits from UArts to Muhlenberg.
  • Muhlenberg will guarantee Talent Scholarships in art, dance, film studies, music and theatre, worth $2,000 a year.
