Sarah Lawrence College students in their senior year may choose to devote one-third of their program to a senior thesis. The thesis is interdisciplinary and is completed over the course of an academic year with a committee of two or three faculty members chosen by the student. One faculty member serves as the chief sponsor, while the others bring the insights and methods of their disciplines to bear on the project.


As of 2022, all senior theses are deposited into Digital Commons as SLC Access Only.
