Colby‑Sawyer is a dynamic and innovative liberal arts and sciences college located in the scenic Lake Sunapee Region of central New Hampshire.
Through dynamic classroom discussions, field experience opportunities and hands-on internships, you will explore your interests while carving out your own unique academic path.
You’ll connect in meaningful ways with peers, faculty and staff in and outside the classroom — at the dining hall, the art gallery, the theater, the residence halls and the playing fields.
Most importantly, you will make a difference here — to your fellow students, to the college community and to the world far beyond campus.

The people I’ve met here and the places the college has sent me have shaped me into a much better version of myself, while keeping me connected to the things I’ve always been passionate about.
Avery Brennan ’21
I’m using my Colby-Sawyer experience in my work every day. A liberal arts curriculum provided me with a holistic education that extends beyond the technical skills required for my profession as a nurse.
Robin Baldwin ’21
This campus is gorgeous and I immediately fell in love with it. There’s just something really homey about it. It’s so relaxing and calm here, and everybody’s so nice. It’s where I wanted to be.
Dallas Robinson ’21
I am forever grateful for the experience and relationships that Colby-Sawyer provided me. Going to a school the size of Colby-Sawyer makes you appreciate those things.
Colby-Sawyer and Dartmouth Health have a dynamic, longstanding partnership that provides outstanding clinical education to Colby-Sawyer nursing students in the state’s largest, and only, academic health system. Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center consistently offers employment to 100% of Colby-Sawyer’s graduating nurses.
Caitlynn McAllister selected for Colby-Sawyer Award
“[Caitlynn] embodies the spirit of Colby-Sawyer College through her scholarship, leadership and unwavering dedication to meaningful work that benefits both her peers and the broader community,” wrote a faculty nominator.
Larson to deliver college's first graduate student address at Commencement
“It’s a challenging time in the world, and we've got our work cut out for us, but there's hope," Larson said. “There are so many people out there who care and want to do the right things.”
Tracy's research finds NH ski industry ready to act to mitigate climate change
“There have been a lot of studies about the snowpack and the scientific side of climate change, but no one really knew how ski industry professionals felt and how it was affecting them," said Tracy.
Lisa Hogarty ’81 to receive college's highest honor at Commencement
Hogarty, senior vice president of real estate planning and development at Boston Children's Hospital and outgoing chair of the college's Board of Trustees, earned a BFA in theater from Colby-Sawyer.
