Pacific Union College sits atop Howell Mountain in the rural community of Angwin, California, approximately 70 miles north of San Francisco in the Napa Valley region. Established in 1882, this private Seventh-day Adventist liberal arts institution occupies a 1,900-acre campus characterized by Victorian-era buildings and extensive forested areas overlooking vineyards and the St. Helena valley. The college maintains a residential campus where most students live in on-campus housing, and operates on a quarter system rather than traditional semesters. Pacific Union College is known for its nursing, education, and biology programs, with pre-professional tracks in medicine and dentistry serving as popular choices among students. The campus includes research facilities, a teaching winery, and an observatory, while its location provides opportunities for field research in the surrounding ecological preserve.
