A small college in the big (and best) city! Small class sizes, great programs, and engaging teachers make this school a bargain. The city is our campus and there are so many opportunities, no matter what interests you have.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I think a visit is the best way to really get a feel for the college and its surroundings. There is an energy here that can't be relayed through the website.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Classes are engaging, and many are taught by professionals in their field. Professors focus on real world knowledge and making connections to what they teach. They are always adding new classes to keep up with the demand from both their students, and the world.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Our dorm is a mini-apartment, complete with a kitchen, 20 blocks from the school. We are living real life in NYC while attending college. I was matched with 3 amazing roommates and strangely we all get along and work together perfectly. The dorms are in a high rise apartment building, with its own security, so it is very safe. I love walking to school as I am a part of the city not just a campus.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There is a C store in the building which has frozen items, some pre made sandwiches, snacks and canned stuff. A lot of the cooking and meals we make ourselves in our room. Our dining dollars can be used for several restaurants in the area, which also deliver! At the school, there are several dining options, and a lot of choices for those with special dietary needs. Personally, I love the sushi - it is some of the best I have ever had, but only available 2 times a week. As one would expect, food is expensive.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are lots of clubs and performances at the school, but, come on - it's New York City! There is so much to do here. We walk to Central Park, Times Square, and Rockefeller Center! We go to Saturday Night Live tapings, take the subway to Battery Park, shopping, Little Italy and Chinatown! It's never a dull moment here!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
MMC is expensive in comparison to state schools, but if you compare it to the private schools around NYC it is actually a great bargain. The attention that you get from your professors and the opportunities that you get for internships and traveling make the price an even better value.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Artistic.
Open minded.
Diverse.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
None.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
There is only one way to get into the dorm, and one way to get onto the school campus, both are monitered by guards at all times.
NYC itself may be another matter, but I have never felt unsafe.
