Created in 1959 as part of the State University of New York (SUNY), Nassau first held classes in a wing of the old Nassau County Courthouse in Mineola, New York.

In 1962, we expanded to 135 acres at the former Mitchel Air Force Base and enrollment soared.

Today, our campus spans 225 acres and includes 47 buildings. More than 24,000 day and evening students and 15,000 continuing and professional students attend each year. We are the top choice for one out of every four college-bound high school graduates in Nassau County.

About one million people have attended Nassau throughout our history. Our 120,000 graduates include doctors, attorneys, teachers, and business and political leaders.
