What Students Are Saying

A truly wonderful College experience. The students and faculty are very welcoming and the campus is adorable. The small class sizes are mainly why I came here.
Jackson from Garrison, NY
Manhattanville College has a wonderful atmosphere for both learning and living that does not interfere with everyday activities. Academics at Manhattanville offer a small student to teacher ratio that allows for a one on one experience with the professors to allow for optimal learning. Manhattanville College, although a small school has big intentions for their students and aids them in their learning process throughout their time here and even after graduation.
Sylvia from Purchase, NY
Manhattanville is a friendly community where everyone comes together as a family. It is a small loving school where everyone wants to see one another do well. Manhattanville is home to me.
