What Students Are Saying

At Molloy, you have to be try to not get involved in the campus life. There is always a ton of events going on and although it is a small school, the campus life is easily comparable to any larger school. I have been given opportunities here that I would never even dreamed possible in college.
Robert from Smithtown, NY
Molloy is a fun welcoming place, where everyone gets to know you. Deciding to attend Molloy College is one of the best decisions of my life! It is my home away from home!
Thomas from Holbrook, NY
Molloy has made me into the person I am today. Because of Molloy and all it has to offer, I was able to come out of my shell in college and was able to join numerous different clubs and make many new friends. Molloy is small enough where your teachers will know your name, but large enough that you can make friends from all different groups. Coming to Molloy was one of the best decisions I have ever made and the education and experience I am getting here as a nursing student will help me in my future.
