Organization
Colgate is a nationally recognized liberal arts college set on a beautiful campus in central New York.
Some 2,900 undergraduates are enrolled in 54 programs, taking advantage of the university's award-winning curriculum, off-campus study program, and numerous research opportunities.
Students enjoy small class sizes taught by expert faculty members -- not teaching assistants.

Located on a beautiful campus in upstate New York, Colgate takes pride in the active engagement of its students, staff, and faculty in local, national, and global communities.
