Top Rated 15 University in Bronx, NY - A Smart Choice for the Future part 2

Carlos Abreu Actually visited this university this summer. All around beautiful. The tour guides were really nice and active asking questions. Definitely going on one of my lists of schools I would like to attend as a college freshman.

Dallas Plummer I went here for a football game but I was late from taking photos of the campus and admiring it. Its a wide open space with historical buildings and easy access.

X yzzI Big, beautiful campus. I did a self guided tour with my bf and we loved it. Respectful staff, respectful people, awesome environment. Even though its in the Bronx but I still loved it. I want to make another visit... since someone on the phone ruined my day on April 3rd :/ (its not school related I promise) but I still had a good time. I will revisit this amazing Campus again

desmond thesongwriter I attended the Spring Concert of the Lehman College Community Chorus & Symphony Orchestra. I liked the soprano section of the chorus. The rest of the performance was competent. There were some balance issues at the beginning. The orchestra was too loud. The choir sings with way too much vibrato for my taste, even for a romantic composer, Schubert. The soloists were too far back on stage. I celebrate and respect old age but I think if the conductor was more able bodied she would have brought out a more precise, dynamic and expressive performance from the choir and orchestra. Several entries of the choir and or orchestra lacked precision and confidence probably due to feeble conducting. I think it is time for the conductor to pass the baton to someone more able bodied.

Denise Marques Celia Cruz Tribute was absolutely amazing. It was a well-deserved salute. Celias recently new coin released, featuring a unique design, celebrating her extraordinary talents. This turn out proved the love that New York holds for her. Forever Azúcar!

Benjamin Gronning Amazing Campus! Lots of pretty greenery and amazing music building. The theater was great!!

Nils Paellmann Beautiful campus (formerly NYU Bronx Campus). The campus contains remarkable modern architecture by Marcel Breuer (1902-1981) and Robert A.M. Stern (born 1939), including Meister Hall, Begrish Hall, Carl Polowczyk Hall, and Colston Hall by Breuer and North Hall and Library by Stern. The famous Hall of Fame is currently closed for renovation.

elalva Bronx Community College located in the University Heights section of the Bronx is the former home of the NYU College of Arts and Sciences as well as its Engineering school. The Hall of Fame for Great Americans is located there. The latter surrounds the historic Gould Library designed by Stanford White. It is a classic double domed and columned building with beautiful bronze doors. (Think Florence) These buildings are worth the visit. Remember the campus is part of City University and you may have to show ID and have packages inspected.

Chrystal Tyler Visited Bronx Community College today for the First time. Living in the area for years and never knew this was here by the trees of the Major Deegan. The campus is exquisite so much history in the architecture. You really can’t comprehend this is in the Bronx. This use to be the old NYU Campus many years ago. It’s like time stops here the chaos around you just stops doesn’t even feel like you’re in the Bronx for a second. I’m so happy my son chose this school for his College. The College feels very safe and that’s very important to me.

Thunder M. I have graduated with the AAS at Hostos, and Im so glad that Ive transferred here. All my professors were very professional, polite, and CARED about my future. I am really proud to tell people that I was a Hostos student. They dont pick up phones and answer emails for shit, even if youre right there dying, but I had a great time there. The only issue is that I never had an advisor, they never gave me one, so I had to do everything by myself, it wasnt that hard actually. If youre going for an AAS in 2D Animation & Design, then this is the right place.

Shatila Chowdhury The security staff and professors are really super good . I am a Medical Administrative Assistant Certification class student here at Hostos. I find my professor and staff members super good and helpful.

Perla Serrano My home away from home. I am a nursing student at Hostos and will graduate next Spring. I am so grateful that I was accepted into the Nursing program. The nursing program is very demanding but my professors are so so helpful and understanding. CUNY is the way to go if you don’t want to end up with a huge student loan.

Indio_Taino 8 I had high hopes. With the price this school charges, the extreme lack of communication, lack of motivation to teach, and rude office staff, You may as well get free tuition at any CUNY/SUNY school. You’d think a private college would have a bit more.

wilberto roman Monroe college offers various degrees. Easy admission process staff are professionals and care about all there student current ,pass admission and new ones. Friendly environment and home feel. I would recommend to all my friends and family to attend this place . The staff really cares.

Klaudja Guri I am a current student. The admission process was great. Olga M. “walked” me step by step and she explained everything I needed to know. Will Never forget how nice and helpful she was. The advisor , the Professors are excellent. They give me options each semester for days and hours and the most important they are there for anything I need , anytime. I see people saying that the school is not accredited which is not true. Nursing program is accredited , students sit for the boards right after graduation. DMS program is accredited with ARRT, after ARRT registry, graduate students can sit for ARDMS… I dont see any problem with this, who wants success have to work hard. I have been here 3 semesters and I did learn a lot already. Nobody was unprofessional or rude, the opposite. I am enjoying my “student life” at Monroe and I will Graduate Next year. Update: I graduated in 2023. I got an amazing job and doing my masters degree now with Monroe University.

Miriam Noyola Manhattan College is a private, Roman Catholic, liberal arts university located 4513 Manhattan College Parkway and Waldo Avenue, Bronx, NY 10471. They offer excellent educational programs, have a beautiful NYC campus and unparalleled career opportunities. They ranked #16 out of 181 Regional Universities North

Michael Levine Just returned from commencement. It was nice. The speaker had no concept of how to read a room. Announced it was the graduates day and proceeded to speak for 45 minutes +!! The most frequently used words were; I, me, mine. No self awareness. The valedictorian was TRULY INSPIRING!!

Maizy S As a student at Manhattan College, one of my favorite aspects of this college and how tightly knit of a community it is. Everywhere you go, you see a friendly face. The staff and workers are all around great people who love the students and strive to make personal connections with them. The campus is so pretty- something that a lot of NYC school dont have. There are so many ways to be who you are and express yourself at this school through clubs and sports and overall is a great academic institution.

Anne Hathaway did not spit in my food. I was just a visitor, but bless these boys & girls for taking up what they do! The shipping & ferrying industries seem to not get as much glamour as the Navy & Coast Guard, or the federally trained merchant marine.

megune_one Underappreaciated part of the southeast bronx. It was fun walking to get here (from a friends place who lives around the area). Never actually attended the college, tho. I just walked to the parts that were open to the public. Just always be sure to call the college and ask if theyre open to the public on any given day (I sure as hell didnt do it).

Richard C Ive experienced one of the most unpleasant and potentially dangerous situations of my life when I found myself in a confrontation with the Campus Police at the Booth entrance. I was not able to deliver dinner to a student unless I turned my GPS and followed his instructions to the gym. Student had to walk to front gate to get his dinner. BEWARE. 04/27 UPDATE: SAME OFFICER AGAIN AT BOOTH ENTRANCE 2:50PM... SAME HARRASSMENT. AMAZING.. A PYSCHO AT THE BOOTH WITH A WEAPON? WOW. BE ADVISED.

Izaiah Velez The Campus is beautiful. The dorming experience is okay. Im currently in the nursing program. Taking my prerequisites like anatomy were great. The teacher is had for anatomy, Anthony Esposito is one of the best professors Ive ever had. Now that Im in the nursing program its a whole other story. I wont say all of the teachers are bad but alot of them really dont care. I have Susan Tighe for Med-surge and she is one of the worst professors Ive ever had. She is very unhelpful and makes no effort to help us pass other than to say "study ever day, weeks before tests to have a chance to pass. The majority of the class failed her first exam but no curve, no going over. Not to mention she makes her own tests and makes them much more difficult than the material we learn in class or even the practice questions we have available to us. The nursing program isnt all bad but yes many of the professors clearly dont think theyre there to help you pass

Luis If you’re looking for a PA program, stay far FAR away from this place. They staff teachers who literally aren’t even qualified to teach (this is something teachers have ranted about to students during class) and if you fall behind, they have no interest in catching you up. Many of the classes taught will not prepare you for the field. And if you make mistakes, they notoriously won’t tell you what mistakes you made. Without being told what you did wrong, it’s not possible to fix it for next time. How does that promote growth or ensure that the graduating cohort is properly educated? It’s so disappointing that such an expensive program is being held together with chewing gum and tape.

Carlson DelaSerna Gorgeous campus with breathtaking views of the Hudson. Friendly and helpful faculty.

Thomas Hart Update I have been emailed back and go to take my test this Thursday wish me luck CNA HERE I COME. GODS PLAN. GODS WORK. GOD SPEED

Thomas Hart I find it extremely disheartening that I want to further my life as a cna and really do the lords work but I’m unable to because this program is never answering phones and or emails I am trying to be better and do better but yall making it hard

Buck Silver No matter how many programs you apply to these people will never call or write you an email back. Their application process isn’t even up to date as they don’t even change the semesters of their classes. This place either lacks funding or lacks employees who are willing to do work. The barber program never ever happens.

Treasure Smith This place is terrible, they’re just sucking the soul & money out of me while I am expected to teach nursing to myself because the teachers either take the entire lecture time for one PowerPoint or zoom through 5 in 2 hours. All of the clinical placement team including Sandra, Jane & Susan are all highly unprofessional. You can’t get in contact with anyone bc they’re all dodging ur emails, sending you your clinical placements late & then rushing you to get paperwork done even though it’s late because they didn’t give it to you. You can get ur nursing degree literally anywhere do not spend 60k+ to do it here!!

Gabriela Bad place for transfer students. They only want freshman right out of high school. I remember calling back in 2022 and the lady on the phone had a baby that was making sooo much noise and I barely heard what she was telling me. I told her what I read in their website that they only favor freshman students over transfer students and that I was a transfer and that they probably wouldnt take my credits. She dismissed me right then and there. She said "oh no youre a transfer? Then no because we prefer highs schoolers who just graduated." I was so disgusted because they do abide by this rule. But you know why? Because we transfer students know how to ask questions and know when the tuition is too high. So they wanna milk the bank accounts of the parents of these newcomers who have NO EXPERIENCE in college. So transfer students stay AWAY. I actually go to a better school in NJ which is very good and way cheaper. The only downside is the commute but I can deal with that. The picture I posted is straight from their website. Also I have a coworker who goes to this school and shes desperate bc she has no support. They fail ppl left to right and even if they miss half a point. She needs help but this college is money hungry and leave their students alone. Too bad. Mercy you need to do better.

Terry Linwe This is my college!! Love all the campuses, plus the professors are super friendly. My list of how awesome Mercy College is, goes on and on! Im writing because I read a comment saying the college is overpriced for a community college level. Lol, 1st off, Mercy is a 4-year nonprofit private college. The financial aid and scholarships offered covered my cost of attendance. Mercy College has opened a door for me to obtain a secondary education for little to no cost.

Mike P I figured since the top review is from some guy who didn’t go here, that I would leave a review too. Since I’m a guy who didn’t go here. Great school! I didn’t go here, I dropped out of CUNY John Jay. But I’ll say bronxville is pretty nice!

Thomas Berry When a school withdraws an offer of admission because youre asking too many hard questions, you know something is rotten. Which was an injury added to the insult of being unresponsive and then short to my follow-up inquiries. The end result was either meaningless because I wouldnt have attended anyways or a blessing in disguise - the place seemed sad (if beautiful) and the students unimpressive on my visit - but that doesnt excuse their behavior. Maybe theyve grown used to farming naive young writers to prop up what appears to be an undergrad program bleeding money, and hate it when someone asks difficult questions about how exactly the grad program is designed to facilitate meaningful outcomes. Or maybe the asking of questions is the mark of someone who truly is a bad fit for Sarah Lawrence College (which is to my mind a much more serious indictment of the place). Either way to summarily end a conversation and unilaterally withdraw admission in the middle of an email exchange in which nothing rude or even inappropriate was said is very strange (to say the least) and not the mark of an estimable place of *higher* learning, much less a decent group of human beings.

Emma Wilson I cant even begin to describe all the things I disliked about this school, I ended up transferring out. The positives I can think of are it is a beautiful campus and some of the teachers are decent, The staff for admissions and financial aid were very rude. The "don" system was more irritating then helpful They claim to be a college that puts high emphasis on writing, however I did not learn how to improve my writing in any of my classes. I learned more at my high school. Dont waste sixty thousand (I guess it is more now) dollars on this school. I did for a year and it was a big mistake.

Shadreka Barnes This school is trash. Don’t even waste your time because one they barely even have different classes that you could register for unless you’re interested in business management childhood education or human services that’s all you’re gonna get and if you’re going for your associates, they only have liberal arts. My issue with the school is I lost my graduation ticket and I was told I could not bring my six month old breast child with me because she doesn’t have a ticket and because of the fact that I cannot attend graduation, I was told that my graduation fees are not refundable, but they won’t let me graduate at the end of the day if you’re not Hispanic, you’re not gonna get nothing done at this college, this college will promise you they promised me four years ago when I first started that I will get a free laptop and printer, and it never happened. I was also promised as a. HEOP student that MetroCard will be provided lunch will be provided and I will get a stipend check if I completed my course and did everything. Why the hell am I supposed to make it back-and-forth to campus if they’re lying about giving out metro cards just don’t waste your time dealing with the school with a headache. You’ll be better off. Going to a Uni.

Shadreka Barnes If you’re not Hispanic, they don’t give a f about you if your breast-feeding mother they still don’t care have for the faculty walk around with alcohol in their desk. They fight like students there’s a lot of drama at that school. The school has no structure. They say it’s an English speaking college, but everyone talks in Spanish. They will lie and tell you that they will give you a The school has no structure. They say it’s a English speaking college, but everyone talks in Spanish. They will lie and tell you that they will give you a laptop and a printer for free if you can’t afford one and you’ll never see it. It’s a waste of time don’t do it to yourself

AJ Arias Save yourself a headache and do not go to this school. Every 3 months you will see new professors, and just the staff in general because they are unable to retain the staff there. I am attending this school for my Human service masters and every semester I have had a new professor. I was unable to graduate because of the lack of staff and not being able to have someone appointed to me as a facilitator for the completion of my thesis . Also the staff there is very rude . Dr. Galvan the head of the human service department told me “ I wasn’t the one that got you pregnant” after I shared a few things regarding the timing of things. If I could go back in time to when I decided to enroll myself to this school I would 100% take it back.
