Here’s what you’ll find at Radford:

Trailblazers Welcome
Radford students never have to go far for an adventure. Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains and along the New River, it’s no surprise we were recently crowned the Top Adventure College by Blue Ridge Outdoors. On weekends, you’ll find our students hiking the trails, biking through the mountains, kayaking, climbing, camping, and more, all just minutes from campus.
