Number One College Town
Amherst was recently rated as the number one college town in North America by independent educational consultant Katherine L. Cohen, founder and CEO of IvyWise LLC and ApplyWise.com.

While on Hampshire's campus, you may wish to visit more than our classrooms:
Try something new through Hampshire's Calendar of Events.
Embrace your inner child at the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art.
Explore Jewish culture by visiting the National Yiddish Book Center.

If you're planning to visit during New England's winter months, you may want to check our snow phone (413.559.5508) for possible delays or closings.

If you aren't able to visit, explore campus through our Virtual Tour.
