Parking on Campus

Visitors are asked to park in the large lot across from the Morris Conference Center or the Tobey lot if the main lot is full. See the map for locations of these lots. The easiest way to get to these lots is to make your second right as you come up the hill from the campus entrance. There will be a sign right in front of this turn showing Morris Hall to the right. Follow this road up and around the hill to the parking lots show on the map.

ROUTE 17 TO ROSCOE...AND 50 MILES TO ONEONTA:


This is a tricky route to Oneonta but probably the most popular with our returning students. Take Route 17 West to Roscoe (Exit 94) and make a left at the end of the exit ramp....

  • ROSCOE TO DOWNSVILLE:
    You will be on NY Route 206 all the way but may notice signs indicating New York Route 30 and County Routes 91 (Sullivan) and 7 (Delaware). Don't be alarmed; this is O.K....

  • DOWNSVILLE TO WALTON:

    NY Route 206 still! Coming into Walton, turn right at the first caution light and continue to next light. Turn left onto Rte 206 (now also NY Rte 10) and within 40 YARDS be ready to make a quick right at the next light onto Townsend St. At this point you have left Rte 206. Continue to the end of the road and make a left on your way to Franklin....

  • WALTON TO FRANKLIN:

    You will be on County Route 21 (note: county signs are much smaller in size and not easily seen.) Approximately 1 mile outside of Walton the road divides...stay right! Entering FRANKLIN, you will make a right turn off of County 21 onto NY Rte 357 and on into the village of Franklin....

  • FRANKLIN TO ONEONTA:

    357 brings you to New York Route 28. Turn left and you're almost with us. Follow Route 28 to Oneonta and follow the signs to campus.
