Our South Portland Campus is one of the most picturesque points on the Maine coast overlooking Casco Bay. Located on the former site of Fort Preble, our 80-acre campus is filled with renovated historical buildings that have been adapted into classrooms, residence halls, dining halls and more. Outside of the classroom, students are just steps away from two beaches, a lighthouse, athletic fields and the popular Greenbelt Walkway.

Additionally, Portland, Maine’s largest city, is just minutes away. Here, students can enjoy one of the country’s best culinary scenes, concerts, night spots for every taste, sporting events, ferries to nearby Casco Bay islands, shopping, museums, theaters and more.
