Admissions Process

Choosing SUNY Adirondack is smart — and not just because you can earn a degree without accumulating a lot of debt. Starting with our easy, free application all the way through to your graduation and beyond, we have resources in place to provide the support you need.

Part of what makes SUNY Adirondack so special is a welcoming, highly qualified faculty. They have credentials to teach anywhere, and choose to be here because they love the interaction they have with students.

Our students are high school valedictorians, working parents, first-generation college students, athletes, artists, retirees — and everyone between. Our staff meets all of you where are, to make your college experience a success.
