| About this School |
| Delaware Valley College was founded in 1896 by Rabbi Dr. Joseph Krauskopf as The National Farm School to educate Jewish youth in farming. Over the years the school grew and developed, finally offering bachelor's degrees beginning in 1948. DelVal was all-male until the late 1960's when women were admitted. In 1989 the Trusteees renamed the school Delaware Valley College. In 1998 the school began to offer degrees at the master's level. Delaware Valley College is located in Bucks County, just outside of Doylestown, Pennsylvania along US Route 202.
