ONEONTA, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say a 20-year-old woman has survived falling from the fourth floor of a dormitory at an upstate New York college.

Police in Oneonta tell The Daily Star of Oneonta (http://bit.ly/1YyV7MB ) that the Hartwick College student from Trumansburg in Tompkins County was injured early Sunday after she apparently fell from a room window at a residence hall.

Officials say the student was taken to a hospital for treatment of injuries that aren't life-threatening.

Police are still investigating. They haven't released the student's name.

Hartwick is a private liberal arts and sciences college with an enrollment of about 1,500.
