At a school where there are huge classes, you aren't going to get the time with your professors, so you aren't going to get the same education that you can get at UNE." — Ariana Walker 23

Beautiful Location

As a student in our School of Arts and Humanities undergraduate programs, you study on UNE's scenic Biddeford Campus, where the waters of the Saco River flow into the Atlantic Ocean. Recently named the youngest city in Maine, Biddeford and its twin city, Saco, boast an up-and-coming, hip downtown offering delicious eateries, exciting social and cultural events, and more. With the transformation of the old mills into restaurants, breweries, housing, and retailers, there is something for everyone to explore.
