Utica College
Description
For more than 60 years, Utica College has been a place where people find their place in the world – a vibrant and diverse community of learners motivated by the will to succeed and the desire to make a difference. Located in the heart of Central New York, Utica College is a comprehensive, independent, private institution founded in 1946. We offer many of the advantages of a large university, such as, undergraduate and graduate degree options, excellent academic programs, and outstanding faculty... but with an intimacy and a high degree of personal attention more closely associated with smaller private colleges.
