Campus Description:
For 103 years Pace University has produced thinking professionals by providing high quality education for the professions on a firm base of liberal learning amid the advantages of the New York metropolitan area. A private university, Pace enrolls nearly 13,000 students in bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral programs in its Lubin School of Business, Dyson College of Arts and Sciences, Lienhard School of Nursing, School of Education, School of Law, and Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems.

At Pace, diverse students in graduate and undergraduate programs take advantage of more than 100 potential specializations in the liberal arts and sciences, business, law, nursing, education, and computer science. Pace enhances students’ experiences with one of the metropolitan area's largest cooperative education and internship program.

The University draws strength from campuses in three parts of the New York metropolitan area, all ideally located near world class centers of finance, accounting, media, healthcare, performing arts and technology. This enables Pace to offer students choices of living and learning experiences especially focused on professional careers with opportunities for improving their lives and the lives of others. The quintessentially-urban campus in New York City is blocks from Wall Street and the South Street Seaport. The traditional suburban collegiate setting in Pleasantville, New York, is in the heart of beautiful Westchester County, and the White Plains campus contains a 13-acre Law School and a Graduate Center directly across the street from the train station.

Pace combines the benefits and resources of a large university with the warmth and personal attention usually associated with a small college, with class sizes averaging only 28 students. Campus housing is available on each campus. For more information: www.pace.edu
