State SAF-Accredited Forestry Schools

Navigation

Below is a directory of all the Society of American Foresters (SAF)-accredited forestry schools in the United States. For fast access to the directory page that contains the state you are interested in, click on that state's name below.

For each school, the Dean or Department Head of the school will be listed. You may want to contact this individual to see if there might be faculty members, graduate students, or a student forestry club who could help train your team. You might wish to discuss with the Dean or Department Head the possibility of your team travelling to the university for training instruction with his or her faculty, staff or students. The Dean or Department Head's phone number and e-mail address will be listed.

If the school has a current home page on the Internet, a link to this page can be accessed by clicking on the school's name or on the web address in the school's listing.
