  • Lycoming College believes residence hall living is an important part of the college experience and the learning that occurs in the halls is an essential ingredient in the growth, development and education of our students.
  • Lycoming is located near downtown Williamsport where we've been since 1812 (overture, please) making us one of the nation's 50 oldest colleges. That's the Susquehanna River in the background and Bald Eagle Mountain. The International headquarters of Little League Baseball is across the river. If you did a 180 you would see some of the prettiest scenery around.
  • Lycoming is ranked in U.S. News and World Report as a "National Liberal Arts College." In addition to such fine academic and financial assessments, we are proud that Lycoming is included on the Templeton Foundation's "Honor Roll of Character-Building Colleges."
