Marymount Manhattan College

RUN. This is a school for rich white people, and even then only a certain type of rich white people. You will be paying ridiculous amounts of money for an experience worse than being in high school. If you are not in a theater or adjacent major your education will not be worth a damn and you will be completely ostracized by other students. If you are queer, disabled, neurodivertent, POC, alternative, etc. there is unfortunately no place for you here. The social environment is just horrible, the dorms and campus are filthy and nothing works, there are NO resources for students who need off campus housing, and many of the professors shouldn't even be employed here. My single year here was a complete waste of time and money. Do not repeat my mistakes I'm begging you.

This is a fantastic school for anyone with passion in the arts. Welcoming, fun, beautiful, fantastic professors. Transferred here from hunter, best decision of my life thus far. So grateful to attend such a university. Small classes so you get the education you deserve.

PLEASE READ IF YOU ARE APPLYING TO THIS SCHOOL I attended the biology program as a transfer student and it was the worst mistake of my life. Marymount Manhattan puts up this facade that their small class size sets them apart from any other college in the city. Let me be clear: this school has more downfalls than advantages. This school requires their students to take general education courses as a freshman and then again at junior and senior levels. I was a biology major taking dance, film and painting during my junior year. Just another ploy to make more money. I was told by an advisor that I would have to graduate a year late to take one single class in spring semester that was only offered every other year. If a class is mandatory for graduation, it should be offered every year. The shortage of staff to teach classes sets an automatic disadvantage for students. How can they expect a student to return to one of the most expensive cities in the world to take one single class? The adjunct faculty is laughable. I took a painting class and had to buy everything out of pocket. I do not come from money as most students at this school and was told by my professor that my brushes were "too cheap". The courses from this college are impossible to transfer as they are considered a joke at even community colleges. As a freshman my friend failed her first biology exam. Normal, not everyone is able to adjust to a college style exam right away. She immediately went to see her professor about improving her grade and she was told to change her major and her aspirations to go into medicine over her first ever college exam. Is that pushing your students to be successful? Maybe the BFA programs are better, but I have only heard negative aspects about them as well. The majority of my anatomy class was failing and nothing was done by the staff to improve lessons regardless of the countless complaints by students. The graduation rate is laughable. The advisor and bursar offices are laughable. They are quick to take your money for a transcript but never send it out. There is so much more to say about this college but it cannot be done in a single review. Please do your due diligence before committing to this school. Countless people can tell you the many other options in the city you can choose from.

Great school! The location is fantastic and the teachers really do care about helping students succeed. The staff are all very kind and everyday will greet you with a smile when you walk in the doors.

Marymount Manhattan College is an amazing college that pushes students to be the best. The faculty at this school is fantastic and are experts in their field. From the moment you walk into Marymount Manhattan College, you automatically feel at home and like you belong there. My time at this school thus far has been wonderful and I would not trade my experiences here for anything in the world. I highly recommend this school to all.

I received three evening robo-fundraising calls within a week that began with the robo-caller saying not to worry, they were just calling to see how my child is enjoying the school. After that, it became a fundraising pitch. If they want to see how my child is doing, they can ask my child. Three calls, all in the evening, within one week, and with a deceptive script. Marymount Manhattan may be a fine school, but their fundraising tactics are sleazy, and the first one alarmed me a great deal.

My wife works there as a security guard so since our profiles are connected u think I was there but iv only gone there on occasion other than that the college is great 👍 …

The building is relatively clean, and has a starbucks and multiple vending machine in side. Rented out a lot on the weekend to Kaplan and other test prep which can lead to confusion.

I love it. MMC has opened so many doors for me. You are going to love it too! A small college on the UES is just what I was looking for.

If you're looking for an intimate small class setting for your student, this might just be what you're looking for... Very quaint setting... Wasn't a bad visit. Thanks 😇🙏🏾 …
