The Extension program, a division of the Regional Education Initiative, offers select SUNY New Paltz courses at community college campuses, public schools and hospitals. This makes attending college easier for those who find it inconvenient to travel to New Paltz. Late afternoon and evening courses are featured to allow busy working adults time to take courses while holding down a job. Presently, New Paltz has extension sites in Dutchess, Orange, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester counties. Both undergraduate and graduate courses are offered.
Currently an evening undergraduate degree program is available in nursing. Graduate programs include Educational Administration, Business and Education.
Courses begin every spring, summer, and fall at several extension sites.
