Overview of Marymount Manhattan College

The atmosphere is great. The students and staff are friendly and there is so much freedom in the city. There is also so much to do when you have down time.

I cannot full express how happy I am to have transferred from Rutgers University to Marymount Manhattan College. This was the best choice I have ever made, honestly. The student body is not much bigger than that of my high school's but that's one of the things I love about it. At MMC you really do get to feel like you are part of a community, and what a community it is. The students are friendly, the upperclassmen are beyond helpful and the professors are down to earth intellectuals who have one great goal; a combination of teaching their students and learning from them as well. NYC is a great college campus, there is always something to do. Whether or not is one of MMC's many school related functions or perhaps visiting a museum or shopping around or even strolling through one of New York's parks, you'll never be bored!

I am loving New York City. It is so exciting being around tall skyscrapers, the bright city lights of Times Square, and the eye-catching, crazy New Yorkers. Marymount Manhattan has the best campus in the world - NYC! I exit the school, and I can walk down to the Modern Museum of Art for a contemporary art exhibition, or relax by the East River. It is amazing to be here, because you can meet so many interesting people, experience different cultures, and just be yourself.

The freshman dorms are a ten minute walk from times square, this school is fantastic. It helps that a lot of your first year classes are geared towards the city and gives you an opportunity to explore. It's not hard to navigate your way around, and there are always tours that different clubs host of certain areas of the city. I am involved with the MMC blog team, getting to tell prospective students the inside scoop on MMC from a students perspective! It's just an all-around great school for just about anyone.

You couldn't ask for a better location, right in the heart of the Upper East side in Manhattan. The school uses it's surroundings and part of the learning process and provides many opportunities for exploring the city that never sleeps.
