No other school in the United States is quite like Paul Smith's College. Our campus sits on the shores of Lower St. Regis Lake, surrounded by six million acres of wilderness that is the famous, forever-wild Adirondacks.

Every day, our students are hands-on and knee-deep in their academics—everything from running an on-campus bakery to transforming fresh timber into finished boards in our sawmill. Outside of class, they bounce between staying active and kicking back around a bonfire.

Experience it for yourself at our Open House. Spots limited!

Where Smitties Get Hired

You Don't Fit in a Box. Great, Neither Do We.

There's a lot that sets Paul Smith's apart. We're the only 4-year college in the Adirondack Park. Our graduates are U.S. Biathlon athletes, environmental policymakers, food truck entrepreneurs, Fortune 500 CEOs, and eSports champions. Our hobbies include birding, fungi foraging, axe-throwing, beekeeping, trout fishing, and beanie knitting.

We're unique. We're curious. And we aren't here by accident.
