Featured Programs

One of the many reasons why students choose D'Youville College is because of our focus on preparing students for a successful career. Here are some of the things that set us apart from other institutions: Merit scholarships: All of our applicants are reviewed for a merit-based scholarship at the time of acceptance. These scholarships are not need-based and are renewable. Dual/Combined degree programs: D'Youville offers several of these programs that allow our students to complete their Bachelor's and Master's, or Bachelor's and Doctorate degree in a shortened amount of time. Part-time housing: In addition to full-time housing, D'Youville also offers part-time residency options. This allows our students to experience the best of both worlds by immersing themselves into the full college experience, while at the same time, having the comfort and familiarity of staying home on occasion. Student employment program: We offer a student employment program that is completely funded by the college. It is not based on financial need, so students who do not qualify for Federal Work Study, are eligible to apply. Community Service: Our students are encouraged to leave a lasting impact on communities, both local and abroad. Student organizations frequently provide a variety of educational and professional services to the local community while others may travel to provide medical services to communities in Haiti, New Orleans and other areas affected by disaster.
