Admissions

Join our 2+2=YOU program and graduate with a four-year degree and spend less on your education. How?

The Details:
The 2+2=YOU partnership allows all past and future participating Community College graduates who enroll full-time at Paul Smith’s College to pay state-level tuition rates, providing you with an affordable option to earn both an associate’s and bachelor’s degree while studying in the Adirondacks.

What does this mean for you?

You’ll pay no more than $7,500 per year in tuition for your two years at one of the colleges listed below, and no more than $9,000 per year in tuition for your two years at Paul Smith’s. This is achieved under the new Tuition Scholarship Program between the Community College and the private Paul Smith’s College when a graduate enrolls in a full-time bachelor’s degree program.

For comparison, a typical PSC student would pay $20,000+ in tuition before scholarships and financial aid.

Which colleges participate?

  • Adirondack Community College
  • Clinton Community College
  • Finger Lakes Community College
  • Fulton-Montgomery Community College
  • Herkimer College
  • Monroe Community College
  • North Country Community College

There are over 20 pathways for you to choose from once you enroll at PSC. For example, graduates of North Country’s Environmental Science program could pursue degrees in Fisheries & Wildlife Sciences, Ecological Restoration, Environmental Science or Environmental Studies at Paul Smith’s College. Sports and Events Management program students at North Country could transfer to Paul Smith’s College to study Hotel, Resort and Tourism Management. In addition, NCCC graduates with Business Administration degrees can move into the Management program at Paul Smith’s College.
