The University of Rochester is based in New York - America, and its mission is to empower students to fulfil their academic and professional passions in a University that is diverse, welcoming, and inclusive for all students, faculty, and staff.

The University is one of the country’s top-tier research universities, has 158 buildings that house more than 200 academic majors, more than 2,000 faculty and instructional staff, and some 11,300 students (half of whom are women). Despite this, Rochester remains one of the smallest universities, with classes with a low 10:1 student to teacher ratio.

The city of Rochester encompasses the beautiful Genesee River and six waterfalls. It is an urban centre of 1 million people, with vibrant and relaxing suburbs, and whose economy is entrepreneurial with thousands of specialized firms in every field. Rochester students also have easy access to beautiful Lake Ontario beaches, Erie Canal recreation, and a vast greenbelt of gardens, parks and summer festivals.

With some 10,000, undergraduate and graduate students, Rochester helps students build their schedule based on their interests without a standard course of study, and it also provides them with a highly collegial research environment where each student has access to research.

With over 250 student run clubs, an extensive athletic centre, and nightly events, Rochester’s campus rarely slows down. Its proximity to classes, the library, as well as on-campus events gives students the chance to easily meet others and participate in school-sponsored activities.

Whether it is the urban yet vibrant lifestyle, the freedom to build your own curriculum according to your own unique strengths and interests, or the easy access to research, the University of Rochester provides you with an outstanding and unique opportunity to have it all.
