We're not just casinos

Reno is called The Biggest Little City for a reason. We are a mecca for tech industry and home to many great businesses - but we're small enough to connect on a personal level.

Tahoe is as vibrant as you

With America's most beautiful alpine lake only minutes from campus, our students can enjoy outdoor recreation activities unmatched by any other college or university in the world.

A hop, skip, and a jump away

Lake Tahoe is a 45-minute drive from The University, but it feels a world away. The proximity of Lake Tahoe and the High Sierras is just one reason Reno-Tahoe is known as one of the best areas for outdoor sports and recreation. For outdoor activities, you can't beat Lake Tahoe. With snow activities, water sports, hiking, biking, golf, rock climbing, fishing, horseback riding, and so much more, the only limit to what you can do is your imagination.
