The HartLand Promise
A Commitment to our Neighbors
Hartwick’s HartLand Promise
When it comes to deciding where to go to for a future-focused education, we want students who live or attend high school in the region to think of Hartwick College!
At a comparable cost of attending a SUNY University Center, students in public and private high schools in Otsego County, Chenango County, Delaware County, Herkimer County, Madison County, Montgomery County, Onondaga County, Oneida County and Schoharie County, can now take advantage of Hartwick’s unique education approach through the College’s new HartLand Promise cost of education rate.
Made possible through the generosity of donors, the HartLand Promise is yet another step in Hartwick’s deep and historic commitment to the region.
How it Works
Eligible students from the nine surrounding counties who apply and are admitted will be charged tuition and fees of — on average — between $9,000 and $10,000 per year for 2024-25.
