Colgate University is a highly selective residential liberal arts institution distinguished by academic excellence and interdisciplinary inquiry. Located on a beautiful campus in upstate New York, Colgate takes pride in the active engagement of its students and faculty in local, national, and global communities.

We offer 53 majors and 13 additional minors to an internationally and culturally diverse student body of about 2,900 students. Our Core Curriculum, which has been in place since 1928, has been recognized as one of the most ambitious and elegant general education programs in the country.

This strong liberal arts background proves incredibly powerful after graduation, with students launching start-ups, finding jobs with established industry leaders, or being accepted at highly ranked graduate schools.
