There’s nothing passive or conventional about life at SNU.
At Sierra Nevada University, we follow the four E’s:
Entrepreneurship: We love competition at SNU Tahoe. Here, you’ll learn to think on your feet, innovate, and communicate your ideas effectively.
Engaged learning: Sitting in a giant lecture hall isn’t really our style. We want you learning actively and getting excited to grow each day.
Emotional intelligence: We’re going beyond academics so that each and every graduate is a conscientious and compassionate member of society.
Evidence-based theories: Big dreams are important, and so is supporting them with big facts. We’ll help you learn how to think critically and logically from day one.

— But what if you could go to college where most people come to vacation?
At Sierra Nevada University, you can do just that. Just as we’re an integral part of the North Lake Tahoe community, SNU Tahoe is steeped in the region’s rich beauty and traditions – oh, and it just so happens to be America’s top ski destination (and yes, we have a degree for that!).
