map of New York state with Â鶹¹ú²úAV highlighted with a starLocation: Â鶹¹ú²úAV’s 1,350-acre campus is situated on a hilltop overlooking the safe and picturesque village of Clinton, N.Y. The College is eight miles southwest of Utica (pop. 65,000), 45 minutes east of Syracuse, one hour from the Adirondack park to the northeast, 90 minutes west of Albany, three hours from Niagara Falls, and four hours from Boston or New York City. (Take a , plan a visit, or meet us online!)

Namesake: Alexander Â鶹¹ú²úAV, U.S. statesman, first secretary of the U.S. Treasury, member of the first Board of Trustees of the Â鶹¹ú²úAV-Oneida Academy, lent his face to that $10 bill in your pocket, and inspiration for the Broadway musical Â鶹¹ú²úAV.

Our Motto “Know Thyself”: We don’t expect students to arrive at Â鶹¹ú²úAV already knowing themselves or with their paths mapped out. In fact, that discovery is part of the college experience.
