Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

REVIEWS

Read What Students Are Saying
SUNY Canton's main campus facilities are incorporated into the side of a hill making almost all window a pleasant view. The staff and the students here are intuitive and pleasant. Ethnic diversity at SUNY Canton is also a big factor when considering the school, with an overwhelming population of out of state and country students you are bound to find many interesting cultures.
Scott from Heuvetlton, NY
I learn so much from the teachers! They are also very friendly!
Rose from Nicholville, NY
Some classes will be hard to others some classes will be easy to others. For me i wrote more essays in one semester of college than four years in high school. so for me the hard classes were Writing and Math, and my easy classes where business, Computer Info.Technology,and M.Economics.
For those struggling with classes, the help there is easily reached.
Keith from Brooklyn, NY
I learn something practically every day in all of my classes!
Marissa from Adams, NY
Canton is a well-rounded school there are various things to do on campus,so you are never bored.
Abigail from Bronx, NY
SUNY Canton is rebuilding their campus right now so the campus is looking very beautiful. However I don't think they are very mindful of students at times especially those that don't have a vehicle. The financial office is really bad as well you go to them for help and they read whats on the bill to you. There should be more qualified people to be able to help you in there. The tuition keeps going up like every other college but the assistance to get aid is ridiculous.
Jane Doe from Brooklyn, NY
When i visited this school.I fell in love.This is where i belonged.
Abigail from Bronx, NY
It is a diverse campus with a variety of two and four year degrees. The surrounding village of Canton is very small and lifeless. SUNY Cantons library and fitness center however are outstanding and the campus environment is friendly and tolerant to all students.
SUNY Canton Computer major
College is so different than high school. College is not about drama, but education and the future.
