“It is a really good education. You build so much experience here and just having Alfred State on your resume is big. It is two years, but you get a lot of education and knowledge in two years.” Jack LaRouech

Autobody students benefit from the Wreck Rebuild program

“It is a good feeling knowing that I can take a wrecked car and make it safe again for a family to drive it. It is satisfying to know we can do that here. Many of my classmates will have the same opportunity throughout the school year.” Landon Spoonhower

Connecting to local alumni

“There is financial need for prospective students who want to attend the college, and this is a great way to engage with local students in the Buffalo area who are looking to attend Alfred State.” Josh Torrance

“The professors here are very supportive. When I was here in school, they were sending me internships after internships that I could apply for. If I were struggling in a class, they would give me resources, whether that be assistant teaching or tutoring lessons. They were always there to help you.” Meghan Morse
