Receive solid value for a quality education at BMCC

-

At Borough of Manhattan Community College, The City University of New York (BMCC/CUNY), nearly nine out of 10 graduates earn their degree debt free.

BMCC is committed to providing a high-quality education at a remarkable savings. Ranked No. 4 among community colleges nationwide, according to data from the U.S. Department of Education, BMCC provides more than 40 associate degree programs including Business Administra­tion, Communicat­ion Studies, Liberal Arts, Nursing, Science, Accounting, Teacher Education, Allied Health, Computer Science and more.

The list of associate degree programs at BMCC has grown in response to industry trends and student goals. Last year alone, BMCC students were able to choose new majors such as sociology, modern languages, animation and motion graphics, history, gerontolog­y, psychology and science for health profession­als.

“Community college students deserve the full array of options that private college students avail themselves of,” says BMCC Dean for Academic Programs Erwin Wong. “The primary mission of many community colleges is vocational education, but the trend these days nationally and certainly within CUNY is dual: workforce developmen­t and academic preparatio­n for seamless transfer to a senior institutio­n.”

Students have access to free tutoring and benefit from BMCC’s location in the heart of Lower Manhattan, close to every major subway line. They learn inside and outside the classroom, taking part in field research and completing corporate internship­s. Students present at conference­s and work on grant-funded projects alongside professors who are biologists, computer scientists, artists, sociologis­ts and leaders in their fields.

BMCC graduates are well prepared to continue their higher education at a four-year college within CUNY or beyond. They can also build on the internship­s and clinical rotations they completed at BMCC, and move right into their careers.

Whatever their next step, BMCC graduates do not carry the crushing debt that weighs on their peers at other colleges.

BMCC is one of 24 colleges and universiti­es within the highly esteemed CUNY system, and BMCC’s affordabil­ity is assured by the CUNY Safety Net — low tuition, federal and state aid, and federal tax credits easing the burden on the middle class. So take charge of your future. Enroll now at BMCC and take advantage of a solid value for a qualityedu­cation.
