    Tips for prospective students

    You must be a true Christian looking to grow spiritually. If not, this college is not for you. The rules of this school are pretty strict compared to other schools.
    Great for these types of students

    Great for Christian students looking to be ministers, pastors, Christian psychologists, business people, teachers, and Bible scholars.

    Am learning a lot

    I am not just learning a lot academically, but spiritually as well! Nyack has taught me how to be independent in my faith. I have learned how to think like an adult and apply my knowledge to my faith, and vice versa!
    Am enjoying being here

    I love Nyack so much! I transferred here from Messiah College. This school really fit my needs. It was just far away enough for me to be independent, but it was close enough for me to go home when I needed to go home!
    Bang for the buck

    Nyack is a lot cheaper than most schools. Make sure you ask a lot of questions about financial aid though! They cannot help you unless you ask!
    Tips for prospective students

    Make friends with your admissions counselor! Everyone in admissions is happy to talk to you about anything. However, you need to show them that you are interested by asking questions. Confirm that they received your application, pastoral recommendation, etc.
    Great for these types of students

    Anyone who is looking to strengthen his/her relationship with God! The campus is small, but it is great for people who want a tightly-knit community!

    Nyack College is a place of opportunity. Nyack College is a small relational school who cares not only about your academics, but your Christian Spiritual life as well. Nyack College is beautifully diverse and is set on a lovely hillside along the Hudson River.
    Tips for prospective students

    Come knowing that you will be walking! The campus is very beautiful, but it is a long campus. Also, as with any new college experience, come in knowing what you want. There is an awesome opportunity to grow in your faith with God, but there is also strong temptation to live a double sided life style; one foot in the world and one in your faith. The people are awesome! The college staff truly care about you and want what is best!
    Academic Rigor

    The academics are not that rigorous. The nice thing is that teachers are so helpful and graceful merciful. They want you to do your best and they are very willing to listen and they are understanding!
    Dorm Life

    The dorm life depends on where you live and who you chose to have around you. Each dorm has fun monthly activities to be involved in! The buildings are a bit old and run down, but the community overrides that any day! We like to have good genuine fun together!
    Food and Dining

    The food is alright, very much like high school food. But its always a good social time in the cafe. The school is small, so everyone comes in to each around the same time! Its a fun time at dinner!
    What to do for fun

    Every weekend there is some type of fun going on! Our Student Activities Team is awesome! They try their best to fill the wants of the community. There are always flyers around telling of the fun to look forward to!

    Very demanding work load, and strictness of application advised.

    Cares about the students stress level and overall health.

    It is a Christian college so before each class begins a prayer is said and after class too.
    Tips for prospective students

    Do not wait to the last minute to get your papers done, they look like it may be simple, but it takes a lot of dedication and work.

    Try not to be absent, it would make you get off track.
    Academic Rigor

    Very much strict, and demands from student the best they can give not just enough to get by.
    Dorm Life

    I do not life in a dorm.
    Food and Dining

    around the outside of the school there are plenty of places you can get food to eat. Some are priced high, some are reasonable.
    What to do for fun

    There's different clubs in the school, field trips, and services and meetings for net working and connections, and they have christian services at least two times a week.

    If you are a Christian, loves going to church and loves school. Nyack is for you! Worship and praise in the elevators (usually Monday), teachers who actually care about your academic achievements, and students who would not mind helping to achieve.
    Tips for prospective students

    Ask! Don't be shy to ask for extra credits! Teachers in Nyack College wants you to pass!
    Academic Rigor

    Teachers expect high, but they are not afraid to help with your academic needs.
    Food and Dining

    You get to cook your own omelet. That's already a plus!
    What to do for fun

    Shop! Espeically, if you are in the Manhattan Campus, you are in the heart of SoHo. If you are few hours early, shop; after class, shop!
