George Wythe University is a classical liberal arts school with undergraduate and graduate programs designed to produce leaders who possess the foundation and characteristics required for statesmanship.

Within this scope is a focus on protecting liberty, promoting free-enterprise, preserving moral ethics, limiting government, inspiring civility, and strengthening individuals, families and society--to more fully enable the human pursuit of happiness throughout the world.

George Wythe (pronounced "with") was the personal mentor to Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, John Marshall, and many other notable founders of the United States. Consequently, he was known as America's "Teacher of Liberty."

A statesman in his own right, Wythe signed the Declaration of Independence, served in the First Continental Congress, and was a Virginia delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1787. He also helped develop the Bill of Rights. While teaching at the College of William and Mary, he was the first professor to make American Constitutional Law the subject of regular instruction.

We have embraced the principles and methods used by George Wythe to train some of the most influential leaders in history. The process is Socratic, challenging, and built upon the classics of Western Civilization. It is grounded in the self-discipline and temperance that come from a respect for Natural Law, and crowned in the wisdom gained through rigorous simulations and real-world application under the guidance of a committed mentor.

This was the education that Thomas Jefferson and others received under the tutelage of George Wythe. Today, students with the desire, determination, and character may experience this rigorous and exciting educational challenge at George Wythe University--laying the foundation for a rich, satisfying life of contribution, service and leadership.
