Colleges & Universities

With world-class institutions, beautiful landscapes, and charming communities, the Finger Lakes region attracts college students from around the world.

But regardless of the reason, students are sure to get a great education here – both academically and experientially. Communities across the region embrace the liveliness and creativity that the students bring with them.

Colleges in the Finger Lakes consist of everything from trade schools and community colleges to historic universities and SUNY campuses. Each school has a unique experience to provide its students with world-ranking programs and robust extra-curricular activities.
