Oneonta is a great place for a college. Nestled into the foothills of the Catskills, SUNY Oneonta offers some stunning views. From the color of the fall foliage to springtime's morning mist, the natural beauty that surrounds us adds to the feeling of comfort here. Our campus flows. It's organized into areas for academic buildings, student residences and athletic facilities, with parking sprinkled throughout. The grounds are well-maintained, walkable and cheerful. Once you see it, we think you'll agree that our campus stacks up nicely against other mid-sized schools.
Several types of visits are available. Find the one that's right for you:
