Arlington County is an urban county of about 200,000 residents in the Commonwealth of Virginia, in the U.S., directly across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. Originally part of the District of Columbia, the land now comprising the county was retroceded to Virginia in a July 9, 1846 act of Congress that took effect in 1847. At 26 square miles, it is one of the geographically smallest Counties in the United States. It is the location of Arlington National Cemetery and the Pentagon.

George Mason University operates an Arlington campus in the Virginia Square area between Clarendon and Ballston. The campus is home to the School of Law, School of Public Policy and other programs.

Satellite campuses of Northern Virginia Community College, Strayer University and DeVry University can be found in Arlington. Marymount University, a private four-year college, also calls the county home.
