Location

The Âé¶¹´«Ã½ has three beautiful campuses in fantastic locations. As an undergraduate student, you will spend most of your time on our coastal campus in Biddeford, Maine where you see water from the library and walk the beach after class. Skiing, surfing, biking, hiking, and more are within driving distance, and faculty use nearby woods and waters for hands-on learning. Plus, Portland is only 30 minutes away. You can take comfort in knowing that you are studying in Maine, which is ranked as one of the safest states in the country by U.S. News & World Report.

Undergraduate Admissions welcomes prospective students to our Biddeford campus, offering a variety of ways to visit — from open houses and information sessions to walking tours and opportunities to chat with current students and faculty.
