At Pace University in New York City and Westchester County, NY, we prepare students, highly motivated and willing to work extraordinarily hard, to get great jobs in a demanding world. Pace is about helping you do as much with your life as you can. “Working toward greatness,” as we like to say, means preparing for careers and professions in a stimulating academic environment where independent critical thinking is highly valued. But what’s day-to-day life like at Pace for an undergrad? It’s about great professors with exceptional educational and professional backgrounds. It’s about personal attention, internships right next door, diverse and interesting classmates, and our campuses' vibrant business, cultural and social opportunities.
