College Fjord is located in the northern sector of Prince William Sound, Alaska. It contains five tidewater glaciers (glaciers that terminate in water), five large valley glaciers, and dozens of smaller glaciers, most named after renowned East Coast colleges (women's colleges for the NW side, and men's colleges for the SE side).

College Fjord was discovered and the glaciers named in 1899 during the Harriman Expedition. The expedition included a Harvard and an Amherst professor and they named many of the glaciers after elite colleges. According to Bruce Molina, author of Alaska's Glaciers, "they took great delight in ignoring Princeton."
