Whether you’re a recent high school graduate who wants to live on campus or an adult commuting from home, you will feel welcome and safe on our 317-acre campus that is nestled in the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains. And, you'll have plenty of opportunities to go beyond books and classrooms to experience college life.

Thriving Residence Life
We have no traditional dorm rooms here. None. Our 12 apartment-style residence halls offer you comfortable space that you can call home. And, when classes are over (and your homework is done) you'll have lots of activities to choose from -- movies, concerts, and even field trips to nearby downhill skiing resorts and Cedar Point amusement park. And when it comes to eats, you’re in for a surprise: We have one of the only “fresh-food-only” dining halls in the country. Fresh eggs, fresh veggies, fresh everything—it really makes a difference!

Student Organizations
Get involved. You can choose from more than 40 student organizations, ranging from governing to programming, academic or special interest focused and Greek organizations, plus NCAA Division III and intramural athletics.

Off-Campus Excitement
Our location just outside the welcoming city of Bradford (pop. 11,000) offers quick access to the Great Outdoors —fishing, downhill and cross-country skiing, snowboarding, horseback riding and more. And whether you hit downtown Bradford, zip over the New York state border to Salamanca or take the road trip to Erie or Buffalo, you’re never far from good shopping, eating, entertainment and more.
