School Details

Located on University Hill in Syracuse, Syracuse University, founded in 1870, traces its ties to the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary, established by the Methodist Episcopal Church. Beginning as a liberal arts co-educational college, the university experienced significant growth and, by the conclusion of World War II, Syracuse formed its reputation as a research institution. Today, the highly notable private, not-for-profit university commits to its vision of “Scholarship in Action” which challenges students to lead with “intellectual capital.”

Syracuse University confers bachelor’s, master’s, and doctorate degrees. In addition to the physical campuses and academic units, Syracuse offers more than 70 online degree options to meet the growing constraints of working professionals. Online degree programs meet the same high standards that are found on campus. Even though students earn a Syracuse University online degree, they still feel as though they are part of the community with easy access to faculty and fellow students.
