Our Campus

Set on 44 green acres of rolling hills overlooking the Hudson River, Mount Saint Mary College's campus offers unsurpassed views of the river and the Hudson Valley.

On our campus, you'll see the Mount's history co-existing with the modern in our campus buildings. These range from a stately 19th century home and carriage house to a sleek modern technology center and our new or renovated residence halls.

Here's an introduction to our campus buildings:

Sakac Hall is a recently built co-ed freshmen residence hall with magnificent views of the campus and the Hudson River. Each floor has a lounge area with a bathroom and study area. Additional amenities in the building include: a movie theater room, laundry room, computer room, vending machines, fitness room, as well as a fully equipped kitchen.

Guzman Hall is a co-ed freshmen residence hall with a lounge area on every floor. You'll find a movie theater room, laundry room, computer room, vending machines, fitness room, as well as a fully equipped kitchen. 

Renovations of the College Courts were completed in August of 2009. These spacious townhouse-style upperclassmen residences have several lounges in each building, and at least one full kitchen.  You'll find laundry facilities, study areas, vending machines, recreation tables, large-screen televisions and other amenities, like the Knight Spot.

Aquinas Hall and the Kaplan Center for Mathematics, Science & Technology (MST) is the Mount's main campus building. The MST Center has state-of- the-art nursing laboratories, newly equipped science and technology classrooms and labs, and a large glass atrium. There are "smart classrooms" and large lecture halls, a state-of-the art media lab, the Campus Technology Center, and the Curtin Memorial Library. You'll also find the dining hall, campus store, student lounge, administrative offices and the 1,100-seat Aquinas Hall Theatre where you'll see college productions, concerts, lectures and attend academic events. There's even a "Starbucks" style coffee and tea cafe called the Jazzman's.

Hudson Hall serves as the home for the Education Division, the Dean of Students, Student and Residence Life, Campus Ministry, and Security & Safety.  This building also houses the Student Government Association and our college newspaper, The Clarion.  It has an auditorium and ten "smart classrooms," or high-tech, state-of-the-art classrooms and an art gallery. The Sandella's Café and the Smart Market offer hot and cold meals, snacks, fruit, vegetables, juices, and coffee.  

The Kaplan Recreation Center. The Mount's Kaplan Recreation Center is home to the Blue Knights, and you'll see great Division III basketball, volleyball and swimming. And for soccer, lacrosse and softball action, there's the Kaplan Field right across from Hudson Hall. Our NCAA-regulation basketball court is also used for intramurals and pick-up games. Our competition-sized pool, indoor running track, weight training/exercise, aerobic exercise rooms, and game rooms are also available to all students. There's also a student lounge and an annex with additional classrooms.

Whittaker Hall. This graceful house was the carriage house on the original estate. You'll find the Divisions of Social Science, Philosophy and Religious Studies here.

The Villa was built in the 1840s. In the early years of the college, this Victorian building was the entire college - classes, residence hall, offices and library. Today, the Villa houses the Admissions office, Enrollment Management, Community Relations and News Services, Marketing, the President's office, and the Vice President of Academic Affairs' office.

Bishop Dunn Memorial School is a private elementary (K-8) school located on the south end of our campus. If you plan on becoming a teacher, you'll appreciate the fact that you'll have an opportunity to do fieldwork and observations at BDMS instead of going off-campus, and you'll have the opportunity to put your classroom education into play.
