University Of Maine At Presque Isle

UMPI is an institution of opportunity where every student has the ability to thrive and succeed. The University specializes in personalized, hands-on learning and providing access to real-world career experience. A low student-to-teacher ratio and class sizes of 30 students or less, even in introductory-level courses, ensures lots of one-on-one interaction for each student. An invested, highly-motivated team of faculty and staff adds to the family-like atmosphere on campus. Located in pristine northern Maine just 15 minutes from the Canadian border, UMPI affords easy access to outdoor adventure, from hiking and mountain biking in the spring and fall, to skiing and snowmobiling in the winter. Historic Presque Isle offers the safety and security of a small town with walkable access to restaurants, the Braden movie theater, convenience shopping, and recreational pursuits. While high tuition rates have put many colleges and universities out of reach for an increasing number of our youth, UMPI remains committed to providing a high-quality education at an affordable cost. UMPI currently offers the most competitively-priced college education in the Northeast, with the average student debt upon graduating amounting to just $18,000. UMPI is one of the seven universities within the University of Maine System.
