Virtual Open House, SUNY Optometry at Upstate Medical University

Thanks to those of us who joined us at the SUNY Optometry Upstate Virtual Open House on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, at 6:00 PM EST.

We loved sharing the news of our new campus in Syracuse, launching in Fall 2027 (pending final MSCHE approval) on the Upstate Medical campus. We shared details about the academic program, including our hybrid model designed to maintain strong connectivity between the NYC and Syracuse campuses, as well as student life and the broader vision behind expanding SUNY Optometry beyond New York City. If you missed out on this event and would like to learn more, reach out!

Annual Open House

Every January, we host our Annual Open House in person and virtually to enable applicants and their families to learn more about SUNY Optometry. The event allows you to explore the profession by meeting faculty members, learn what it is like to be an optometry student by meeting and interacting with our current students, tour our campus and obtain tips in how to build a successful application.
