    • Alternate route: Route 17 to Roscoe and 50 miles to Oneonta
      This is a tricky route to Oneonta but probably the most popular with our students.
      1. Take Route 17 West to Roscoe (Exit 94) and make a left at the end of the exit ramp.
      2. You will be on NY Route 206 all the way but may notice signs indicating New York Route 30 and County Routes 91 (Sullivan) and 7 (Delaware). Don't be alarmed; this is O.K.
      3. Continue on Route 206 to Walton. Turn right at the first caution light and continue to next light. Turn left onto Route 206 (now also NY Route 10) and within 40 YARDS be ready to make a quick right at the next light onto Townsend St. At this point you have left Route 206. Continue to the end of the road and make a left on your way to Franklin.
      4. You will be on County Route 21 (note: county signs are much smaller in size and not easily seen.) Approximately 1 mile outside of Walton, the road divides...stay right.
      5. Entering Franklin, you will make a right turn off of County 21 onto NY Route 357 and on into the village of Franklin.
      6. Route 357 brings you to New York Route 28. Turn left and you're almost with us. Follow Route 28 to Oneonta and follow the signs to campus.
