Wellesley College is a private women's liberal arts college in Wellesley, Massachusetts.

Wellesley's endowment of $2.2 billion is the largest out of all women's colleges and the 49th largest among all colleges and universities in the United States in 2019. Wellesley is home to 56 departmental and interdepartmental majors spanning the liberal arts, as well as over 150 student clubs and organizations. Wellesley athletes compete in the NCAA Division III New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference. Its 500-acre campus was designed by Frederick Law Olmstead and houses the Davis Museum and a Botanic Garden.
