Russell Sage College Graduate Programs

RUSSELL SAGE COLLEGE GRADUATE PROGRAMS

FLEXIBLE. AFFORDABLE. PROVEN.

For more than 100 years, Sage has provided professional training within a liberal arts foundation, graduating well-prepared and wellrounded individuals who excel in the workforce.

Since 1949, our innovative graduate programs have provided an additional level of experience to advance careers and deepen personal growth.

While you may know us as The Sage Colleges, we're pleased to welcome you to our newly unified institution: Russell Sage College. Our two distinct campuses in the neighboring cities of Albany and Troy, New York, offer learning environments that are both accessible and constructive. Small classes are led by experienced and respected professionals who value their students. Graduate students participate in independent and faculty-sponsored research, take part in field and clinical placements, and build professional networks through symposiums and conferences.

Understanding the needs of our graduate learners, many of whom are working adults, Sage offers convenient, flexible schedules that include evening, weekend, and online classes. And we provide all this professional value at an affordable cost.
