Corvallis is 90 miles south of Portland and 36 miles south of Salem, the state capital. The Pacific Coast and the Cascade Mountains are nearby. Corvallis is a vibrant college town; WalletHub recently ranked it as the fourth-best overall college city in America. The https://imaginecorvallis.org/2040-vision campaign demonstrates Corvallis’s commitment to making itself a livable, diverse community. Known for prioritizing environmental responsibility, Corvallis sits within easy access to Oregon’s finest natural recreational and scenic areas: ocean beaches, lakes, rivers, forests, high desert, wine country, and the rugged Cascade Mountain and Coast ranges. The University’s branch campus, OSU-Cascades, is located in Bend, which is world-famous for both its outdoor pursuits and pristine beauty. Today, Bend and Central Oregon represent Oregon’s fastest-growing region and one of its most dynamic economies.   Land acknowledgement   As one of the nation’s Land Grant institutions, Oregon State University benefitted from resources derived from the taking and sale of lands occupied by Native peoples, specifically the Klamath, Coos, Lower Umpqua, Siuslaw and Coquille people. In addition, OSU’s Corvallis campus is located within the traditional homelands of the Mary’s River or Ampinefu Band of the Kalapuya people, whose descendants are members of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon and the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians. Indigenous people are valued, contributing members of the Oregon State community and represent multiple sovereign tribes among students, faculty, staff and alumni.
