Nestled on 97 acres in Tacoma’s vibrant North End neighborhood, students at Puget Sound enjoy the best of both worlds.

Do you thrive on the rapid pace of a city? Downtown Tacoma offers exceptional restaurants, lively shopping centers, and an abundant arts scene just a short bike ride away. Or, jump in the car and explore the booming tech hub of Seattle, complete with championship sports teams and concert arenas that hosted some of the most popular acts of the past thirty years.

Looking for some peace and quiet instead? Discover the serenity of walking along the ocean, hiking nearby mountains, or exploring one of the world’s most spectacular temperate rainforests, all within a short drive of our campus.
