CAMPUS SUMMARY

Pioneer Seventh Day Baptists who settled in the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains founded Alfred University as a select school in 1836. Alfred became the first coeducational institution of higher learning in New York State and the second in the nation. Today about 2,000 full-time undergraduate and 200 full-time graduate students work and live in 62 buildings on a scenic 232-acre hillside campus adjoining the village of Alfred. Alfred is approximately 1� hours south of Rochester and 2 hours southeast of Buffalo along the scenic Southern Tier of New York State.

UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS

The nonsectarian university is comprised of the privately endowed colleges of Business, Engineering and Professional Studies, Liberal Arts and Sciences, and the New York State College of Ceramics (composed of the School of Ceramic Engineering and Materials Science and the School of Art and Design). Bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees are awarded as the culmination of Alfred University�s academic and professional programs.

With its traditional emphasis on providing a high quality of contemporary education, Alfred University expects academic achievement from students who are accepted under a selective admissions policy; individual students to accept responsibility for learning; faculty members� highest priority to be teaching; a stimulating diversity in academic programs; career objectives and personal value systems; students, faculty and staff to work together in a friendly atmosphere of mutual respect.
