Mildred Elley - Pittsfield Campus

General information

Mildred Elley provides quality higher education in the New York Capital Region, the Berkshires, New York City and online.

Our roots begin in 1917, when a shortage of office workers in the Capital District occurred because of World War I. Many positions previously held by men opened up to women. Many young women became excited about the opportunity to obtain the skills needed to fill these well-paying office positions.

A group of young women turned to Mrs. Augusta Mildred Elley, a well-known suffragette who was respected for her intellectual pursuits. She agreed to teach typing and shorthand and from then on built a reputable school for women.

Since then, Mildred Elley has expanded into a co-educational, multi-campus institution. We offer a variety of degree and certificate programs that fit your needs for obtaining a successful career.

At Mildred Elley, you are more than just a student — you are a professional in training.
