It is a primarily undergraduate, residential institution with approximately 3,700 undergraduate and graduate students in five schools: the School of Arts and Sciences; the E. Claiborne Robins School of Business; the Jepson School of Leadership Studies; the University of Richmond School of Law; and the School of Professional & Continuing Studies. It is classified among "Baccalaureate Colleges: Arts & Sciences Focus".
The university's athletics teams are known as the "Richmond Spiders," after the university's distinctive mascot.
