"The science facilities are great for a college of their size and they're building additional facilities opening in 2027 (?)."

Yes, that's the plan.

Not with the money.

The walk from the college to areas of interest in Schenectady takes about 10 minutes, I believe.

A few high achieving students from DD's public HS (New England region) have gone there.

The science facilities are great for a college of their size and they're building additional facilities opening in 2027 (?).

It's appealing to DD for the science and engineering programs, but with a liberal arts focus. She also likes the 3 classes per term, though I believe they're in school more/longer than traditional semester-based colleges.

I think the town has an Amtrak stop, which is convenient from NYC. It's also in the tri-city region, including Albany, which I would expect is helpful for internships.

From what we were told, the schools in their sports conference are all within a 3 hour drive of Schenectady, so theoretically less time out of class for student athletes.

She's interested in other schools mentioned in this thread - Rochester, Lehigh, etc.
