Our AA and AS degrees are designed to parallel freshman and sophomore classes at senior institutions. Class sizes are typically smaller than those at four-year institutions, and personal attention from faculty helps build a foundation for success. Plus, tuition is less expensive than SUNY four-year institutions and a fraction of the cost of most private colleges and universities. In addition, students are eligible to earn transfer scholarships and may keep a part-time job in the local community. Students uncertain about majors or career directions discover that Herkimer College provides an excellent opportunity to explore different options before committing to a bachelor’s level program.
