This gives students all the benefits of small town life while being close to lots of attractions.
It has over 60 campuses spread out across the entire state of New York. The state’s 10 international airports and good travel links makes it easy for students to explore and plan events and activities alongside their study.
The second largest state in the USA is home to ONCAMPUS TEXAS, which attracts students from all over the world. The Texan identity can overshadow even the American identity in this area. Its unique politics, history and locals make it one of the USA’s most intriguing destinations.
The state itself is vast; it covers an area slightly larger than France, measuring over 267,000 square miles. Our partner university - the University of North Texas - attracts 36,000 students across its 875 acre campus.
