Keuka College, situated on 288 acres overlooking Keuka Lake in New York's Finger Lakes region, is a private liberal arts institution founded in 1890. The campus, located 70 miles south of Rochester, features a blend of historic and modern buildings set against the backdrop of one of the state's glacial lakes. Initially established as a women's college, Keuka College became coeducational in 1985 and maintains its historical emphasis on experiential learning through its Field Period program, which requires students to complete annual internships or hands-on learning experiences. The college offers undergraduate programs with notable strengths in nursing, business, criminal justice, and social work, while also providing several master's degree options. Traditional residence halls house most undergraduate students, with lakeside views available from many campus buildings.
