From the Institution

Whether they are winning Pulitzers, launching nonprofits, anchoring broadcast news, leading multibillion-dollar companies, or revolutionizing patient care (among other pursuits and accomplishments), students who graduate from Ithaca College make an impact and forge incredible paths. Founded as a music conservatory in 1892, Ithaca College continues to attract curious and creative students looking to find, face, and be themselves. With an engaged student body, IC is part of an eclectic, energized community. An IC staff member founded International Pronouns Day. Ithaca is a student-fueled college town full of art, music, and festivals. Surrounded by 150 majestic waterfalls in the Finger Lakes region of New York State, the community hosts tech startups, a killer music scene, Broadway-caliber theatre, and alumni-owned businesses-including world-class restaurants and ice cream shops. IC students chart their paths with faculty experts in more than 70 majors and 70 minors offered through five schools. Students benefit from small classes, personal mentorship, collaborative partnerships, and professional guidance, as well as access to first-rate equipment and facilities that you'd find at larger institutions. IC offers students a unique combination of academic theory, hands-on practice, and performance. They apply what they learn in real time-working through setbacks while making new discoveries-to develop a resilient mindset. Fast-paced internships, performance opportunities, and study abroad options-including IC's programs in Los Angeles and London, as well as programs in more than 50 countries-enrich students' experiences and connections. They gain from the personal and professional benefits offered by strong alumni networks and lifelong "career communities." On IC's safe and beautiful residential campus, 75% of students live in conveniently located residence halls and apartment complexes. Over 200 student-led organizations-including recreational, professional, and advocacy clubs-offer opportunities to create award-winning projects, volunteer, philosophize, and connect. IC's NCAA Division III athletics program, with 27 teams, reflects the intense drive, professionalism, and spirit of contribution and support that are alive throughout the Bomber community. At Ithaca College, continual pursuit of progress connects academics, entrepreneurs, artists, and innovators alike, developing strategic partnerships, pioneering incredible collaborations, and working in makerspaces and incubators across disciplines and communities worldwide.
