Our graduates hail from 14 counties in New York State, with 40% coming from Steuben, an additional 40% coming from Chemung and 6% coming from Schuyler. Out-of-state students represent 4% of those in the Class of 2019 and include students from India, Nigeria, and South Korea. In addition, the Class of 2019 includes 17 veterans and 29 Presidential Scholars (students who graduated in the top 10% of their high school class and met the requirements to earn an associate degree with no tuition debt).
