Skidmore College is a highly selective, nationally ranked liberal arts college that fosters creative approaches to teaching and learning and values diversity. Our student population consists of approx. 2,650 undergraduates, of whom 26% are domestic students of color, 15% are first-generation college students, and 11% are international students. With its relatively small size and low student-faculty ratio (8:1), the College is a close-knit academic community. The Department of Mathematics and Statistics, which consists of approx. 12 full-time faculty members, is located in Skidmore’s Billie Tisch Center for Integrated Sciences, a state-of-the-art teaching and learning space that fosters unique interdisciplinary connections across the sciences, arts, and humanities.

Located in the vibrant community of Saratoga Springs, New York, the 1,200-acre Skidmore campus is adjacent to the Adirondack Mountains and is only a 30-minute drive from Albany and a 3-hour drive from New York City, Boston, and Montreal. Rail service from the Saratoga Amtrak station offers additional travel options, including a direct line to New York City. Travel & Leisure calls Saratoga Springs one of “America’s best college towns.”
