Classes include but are not limited to: anthropology, environmental studies, philosophy, photography, biology, botany, history, physical education, and Buddhist studies.

All students work with faculty mentors to develop an individually guided major that can be a combination of various fields of interest. Co-op jobs are also an integral part of the Antioch curriculum. Beginning in their second year, students at Antioch College work in the fall and summer terms. Students co-op in the spring term during their third year.

Antioch College offers students the opportunity to participate in core communities, where several faculty members from diverse concentrations team up and create a complementary curriculum to explore a common theme that they will all teach for this one class.

The student to teacher ratio is about 12 to one.
