Welcome to Molloy College
Molloy, one of the most affordable private colleges on Long Island, was founded in 1955 and is an independent Catholic college located in Rockville Centre. Molloy students can earn degrees in a variety of outstanding academic programs including liberal arts, social and natural sciences, nursing, business, education, social work, new media, speech therapy,
music therapy, theatre arts, criminal justice and many more. In today’s economic climate, more college-bound students (and their parents) are looking for an academic environment that offers the best fit for the student and the best value for their tuition dollars.
And there is no better place to start than at Molloy College, recently named a “Best Value” school by Money® Magazine (ranking ahead of all the schools on Long Island that offer a full range of degrees and majors).
Molloy provides its 4,500 undergraduate and graduate students with a variety of high-quality academic programs. Molloy is large enough to offer students a rich educational experience, yet small enough to provide personal, compassionate mentoring to bring out the best in every student. A Catholic, Dominican college with a rich tradition rooted in the core values of study, spirituality, service and community, we believe in the power of education to transform: Its ability to change an individual, the community and, ultimately, our world.
We create a challenging and nurturing environment for our students. With more than 50 academic programs, approximately 60 clubs and honor societies, a competitive honors program, various service opportunities and NCAA Division II athletics, there are abundant opportunities for each student to not only strive for academic excellence, but also explore new interests, pursue athletics and enrich our community. In fact, our student surveys regularly earn Molloy recognition in both The Princeton Review and U.S. News & World Report listings of outstanding colleges and universities. Also of note, Molloy graduates’ starting salaries have ranked in the top five in the nation in recent years, based on surveys conducted by PayScale.com. Additionally, Collegefactual.com ranks Molloy as #4 in the country for colleges offering studies in the healthcare professions.
Our commitment to transforming the individual enables us to help transform our communities. We help develop ethically minded leaders who strive to be catalysts for change and to ultimately improve the world we live in. This commitment extends far beyond our campus. Our global learning courses take our students around the world, while our innovative, collaborative community-focused programs take on our region’s toughest challenges.
Just as Molloy remains committed to transformative education for both its students and the communities it serves, the college also continues to grow and transform. In recent years, Molloy added its first two doctoral programs (both in nursing) and a new master’s program in clinical mental health counseling, as well as a new media major, a healthcare M.B.A. and a four-year degree in nuclear medicine technology. The college also just launched a B.F.A. in theatre arts in partnership with New York City’s CAP21, one of the country’s leading musical theatre conservatories. Additionally, Molloy has made significant additions to its campus including a new student center (which houses the Madison Theatre) and two new residence halls.
