About

Simon's Rock at Bard College, commonly called Simon's Rock, is a private liberal arts college in Barrytown, New York. It is part of, and adjacent to, Bard College in neighboring Annandale-on-Hudson. Both are in the town of Red Hook. The school is an early college where students enroll after tenth or eleventh grade, rather than after graduating from high school. That is, it is an early college entrance program. Most students transfer to larger institutions after receiving an Associate of Arts degree in two years, although many stay for two additional years to receive a Bachelor of Arts at Bard College.
