Metropolitan College of New York — Local services in New York

My time with this school ended horribly. I was drawn to the school because ithe school advertised itself as a good choice for working adults. So as a single mother, who had a demanding job, I enrolled in the MBA Media Management program. I knew it would be hard work with a Friday, Saturday and Sunday school schedule, however, I pursued it. This program was not flexible enough to allow me to make certain minor changes so that I could balance my home, work and educational life and still finish the program. I was not met with any help to work this out and finish my program as I had one last semester to complete. The absolute worse part was dealing with Dr. Ran. She was absolutely horrible to work with and since she was the holder of all movements in the program turning to her made all other problems worse. Long story short, I ended up quiting the program with one semester lleft, have heart issues due to the stress , together with heart medication (thank God that cleared up) and a horrible taste in my moouth for the school and program. I must say I enjoyed most of my time there but when it came down to it, this is NOT a program for adults with a career and family. If you don't have heavy demands to your life llike a family and a demanding career, go for it. If you do DONT DO IT. There are no other option offered to help you like... to drop a class or two and extend your program by 3-6 months or just change your schedule to fit your life. I now have my MA in another field and got it by a similar program that allowed me to change my...

Beware of this school. The only reason I even gave it two stars is be the teachers are FANTASTIC. The teachers actually care and want to see their students prosper. But being a student here for 8 semester I can give my full opinion of what I’ve seen. The administration of this school DOES NOT care about students, more about “ the community “ than the students paying 10,000 a semester for an education. There’s a handful such as dr . Ardovini and ms. Salas that strive for their students. But people whom work for student related services such as mr.molina , David whom “ supervises “ financial aid in the Bronx , could care less about students. Bronx campus is consistently treated like the step child of the institution as they are just getting the resources the Manhattan campus had ( now in my last semester we’re getting this). The schedule is not flexible with no weekends for most of the later purposes especially in human services. They also have a habit I’ve seen of overcharging people’s tuiton ( did not happen to me personally) and several people have had problems with it. They also have switched professor without notice to students. Staff have also made advances at a number of students at the school which made it supremely uncomfortable for many students. Please don’t waste your money...

I highly recommend Metropolitan College of New York for its unique style of learning. In our ever changing society MCNY is one of the schools that understands the culture changes when it comes to all the different areas of career paths. To keep up with the fast paced changes its unique style of learning enhances the student’s ability to grow professionally and personally, by combining actual experience in the field and implementation of theory. As opposed to traditional colleges that start with theory and knowledge and later is applied by the students, if they get a job in that field, MCNY sets its standard of services to the communities, organizations and businesses by providing hands on experience as the students are learning about the different theories. The benefits are endless when combining the applied theory to direct experience via internships because it allows students to work full time and also go to school full time the flexibility is great for those working students not to mention the professional networks built and the positive changes that come along with it, in turn making an impact to all the systems within the U.S. Graduates of MCNY become to be outstanding citizens, I can vouch for the integrity of the school and...
