State University of New York at New Paltz reviews
3Went for a bit, met a girl only to have my heart broken. Food is weird too.
Excellent college. The State University of New York at New Paltz (SUNY New Paltz or New Paltz) is a public university in New Paltz, New York. The SUNY New Paltz campus consists of about 216 acres (87 ha) in the small town of New Paltz, New York. There are 14 residence halls, centered mostly in two quads. The main campus has two dozen academic buildings, including the Haggerty Administration Building, a lecture hall, Old Main, Sojourner Truth Library, one main dining hall, the Student Union Building, Science Hall and extensive gymnasium and sports areas.
The college also operated the Ashokan campus in Olivebridge, New York, consisting of another 400 acres (160 ha). In 2008 it was sold by Campus Auxiliary Services to the Open Space Conservancy; it is now operated as the Ashokan Center.

I had a very bad experience at this university and I don't recommend parents to send their children here. I finished my undergrad here a while back but I am not proud of the "education" I received and don't feel like I learned anything more here that I could have gotten on YouTube for free. I found the quality of education, equipment and facilities to all be a downgrade from my highschool. Some of the professors seemed to genuinely care, but I guess like most NY state schools nowadays the campus and overall atmosphere was one injected with political and cultural ideology and picking favorites. I also found the administration at the school seemed more focused on money grabs and inclusivity quotas than on actually nurturing quality education and passionately guiding the students in a productive pathway for their degrees. I wasted about a year on useless classes that didn't count towards my selected field due to poor guidance and bad advice from the administration.
