Review of Marymount Manhattan College

from Queens, NY

Describe your college in three sentences.

MMC has a fun learning environment with a lot of positive students. The focus for the students is not to be on campus all the time but to actually be prepared for the real world. It's a liberal arts school, and we're proud of that.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Go on a tour during the school year and really see what the environment is like. There is no Greek life and no sports environment. The school is clearly not for everyone but it's perfect for me and could be for you too.

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

It's hard for me to judge Academic Rigor because I think it depends on your background and how seriously you take the classes.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Great residence hall in a great area. Kind of small but that's NYC. Dry Campus.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I love the food at MMC! they have vegan options for me!

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

There are clubs and performances to watch. But it's in an amazing part of NYC, so the possibilities are endless.

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

One of the least expensive schools in NYC. Keep in mind that college is what you make of it. If you don't try, you're not going to get your money's worth.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Twice a year there is a big festival on 71 street which is so fun. Personally the terrace is my favorite spot on campus.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

MMC is great for students who want to be in the city and who want to be supported yet independent.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

there are so many clubs. I'm actively involved with 3 clubs but still participate occasionally with other clubs too.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

NONE.

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

24 hour security on our buildings but NYC is basically the campus so you just have to be smart about it.
