The Newburgh Learning Center (alongside its Middletown counterpart) is dedicated to supporting all SUNY Orange students in achieving optimal learning in every course, to attain their academic goals, and to become confident, independent lifelong learners.  The Learning Center strives to contribute to SUNY Orange's role in providing accessible, welcoming, holistic, and nonjudgmental support for each individual's independence and success.  

The primary goal for the upcoming academic year is two-pronged: 1) The assessment of current services in terms of accessibility and eliminating barriers for the student entry into support services; 2) The expansion of current services to address student needs holistically.
