Since our founding in 1966, Herkimer College has earned a reputation as one of the top community colleges in New York State and the nation. Our commitment to academic excellence, innovative programs, and exceptional support services continues to open doors for students of all backgrounds and ambitions.
At Herkimer, we are proud of the success of our students and alumni. We consistently rank among the best in graduation and transfer rates, thanks to a personalized learning environment and faculty who are dedicated to student achievement. With more than 40 associate degree and certificate programs - spanning fields such as art, business, communications, criminal justice and law, education, healthcare, liberal arts, and STEM - we offer a strong foundation for wherever your journey may lead.
For students needing flexibility, 21 degree programs and four certificates are available fully online, along with robust support services tailored to non-traditional learners. Whether on campus or online, Herkimer offers a vibrant, engaging college experience. Students enjoy on-campus housing, a wide range of clubs and organizations, leadership opportunities, and an active student activities calendar.
Our athletic tradition is another point of pride - the Herkimer Generals are a national powerhouse with 19 intercollegiate sports and a history of championship success.
We also understand that access and affordability are critical to your college decision. That’s why we’ve held tuition, fees, and housing costs steady for four consecutive years, keeping them among the lowest in New York State. Through the Herkimer County College Foundation, students have access to more than 80 scholarships, including the Tuition Scholarship for Herkimer County residents who graduate in the top 15% of their high school class.
At Herkimer College, your education is just the beginning. Whether you’re pursuing a degree, planning to transfer, or building a career, your path forward starts here - and there’s no telling where in the world you will go.
