There's No Place Like Unity, Maine!

What better place to experience education, naturally, than in the wooded wonderlands of Maine!

The Unity Campus
Unity College sits on 225 acres of fields and woodlands overlooking Lake Winnecook—also known as Unity Pond—in the village of Unity, Maine, home to 1,800 friendly folks.

Our campus makes it easy for faculty to expand your learning opportunities beyond traditional classrooms and labs for field experiences, service learning, internships, and study-abroad semesters.

From Maine’s western mountains to its rocky Atlantic coast, the rich natural heritage of our region enhances Unity’s academic programs and offers lots of outdoor fun!
