Many Ulster County residents begin their college experience at SUNY Ulster, going on to transfer to four-year colleges and universities or entering the workforce upon graduation. It’s a smart strategy that allows students to gain an excellent education without incurring extraordinary debt. For those transferring, the money saved in the first two years helps finance the last two.

Students just starting the financial aid process may put down a $50 deposit to hold their registration. All other students should sign up for our payment plan or remit payment in full.
