Review of CUNY Queens College

from South Richmond Hill, NY

Describe your college in three sentences.

This school has an amazing campus, amazing programs, and amazing professors. I have attended many colleges in New York but have never felt more comfortable than here at Queens College.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Study hard! This is a challenging school which is why I highly recommend it. Never take the easy way out. Their programming helps develop a sound work ethic and a character of great resolve.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The work load can become a little overwhelming. However, you are here to learn. This assists you in organization, time management, and academic skills.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

They do have dorms however I stayed off campus. I was told they are quite comfortable though.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

There are two cafeterias on campus and some food carts right outside the campus. Eating out can get expensive so I recommend carrying something light in order to save money.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

This college is in New York, need I say more?

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Well worth it, quite affordable. Yearly tuition+books will run you $7,000. This is a City University of New York school so it is subsidized by New York City.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

There are so many activities on campus it is unbelievable! Just this past week they had rides, (yes rides!), a horse and carriage (yes a horse and carriage!), and free food! (yes, F-R-E-E!). There are a host of events one may attend and also there are celebrities and alumni that are always visiting. Just the other day, there was an event with Bill Cosby!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are so many different clubs on campus.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There is a Greek club. I see them almost everyday! Nice bunch I must say. The President of the Greek club sometimes gives us free pizza.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Very safe. The campus itself is in a very nice area. It is quiet, clean, and safe.
