Union College is a top residential liberal arts college in Schenectady, NY.
Union College provides a rigorous, holistic, and immersive liberal education that emphasizes integration, innovation, inclusion and reflection for every student. Founded in 1795, Union College was the first college chartered by the Board of Regents of the State of New York. We are a small, residential, independent liberal arts college committed to integrating the arts, humanities and social sciences with science and engineering in new and exciting ways. Union's rigorous academics take place in a diverse, welcoming campus environment that supports your personal growth, provides you with a wealth of opportunities to find and pursue your passions, and inspires you to engage with the local and global community.

Did you know that bird-window collisions are a major threat to local wildlife?
After student researcher Daniela Alemán Perez ’25 discovered 930 bird-window collisions on Union’s campus in just two months, members of Union’s Birding Club stepped up to make a change.
Supported by Facilities Services and a $10,000 Audubon in Action grant, Maya Corridore ’27 and Maryann Fuentes ’27 are leading an initiative to install protective UV decals across high-risk campus buildings. These tiny decals increase birds' spatial awareness and can reduce collision risks by up to 95%.
