Bay Path University is located in Longmeadow, Hampden County, Massachusetts, immediately to the south of Springfield along the Connecticut state line. The university is all-female, as with Mount Holyoke and Smith, yet surrounding colleges and universities also influence Bay Path into a common role in the Knowledge Corridor. Located along U.S. Route 5, Bay Path is positioned almost exactly in between Hartford and Springfield, with Northampton and Amherst to the north and Meriden and New Haven each further south.
