Bronx Community College is a great option for a two year college, wide variety of mayors, mix ethnicity and very flexible hours schedule.
Rosa from Bronx, NY
Bronx community college is a great school to come get an education in a hurry. The people are friendly and very helpful. The professors are also very helpful and understand that students have lives outside of college.
ANAIS from Bronx, NY
The Campus is big and nice.
The college has new buildings that look so beautiful and easy to navigate to. Most of all they have technology usage whenever you need it.
Brett from Mount Vernon, NY
Bronx Community College has been very helpful in working towards my future through a good education. There are many departments and respected staff members to turn to when there is need for clarity. I would personally recommended BCC to those who are looking to start up their educational path and need assistance to move forward.
Jessica from Bridgeport, CT
I rate Bronx Community College a 9 out of 10 because of the outstanding educational resources the campus provides, if not more than other two-year colleges.
The professors are extremely knowledgeable and give students the confidence to reach out to them for assistance.
Bronx Community College has an excellent social campus life.
