About

Metropolitan College of New York (MCNY) is an independent institution best known for its adult-friendly, career-focused curriculum grounded in social justice and experiential learning. Through the Audrey Cohen School for Human Services and Education, the School for Business, and the School for Public Affairs and Administration, MCNY excels in practical fields such as human services, emergency management, and healthcare administration. Operating out of campuses in Manhattan's Financial District and the Bronx, the college features a diverse, highly driven student body composed largely of working adults balancing professional lives with accelerated degree programs. MCNY is uniquely distinguished by its "Purpose-Centered Education" model, which requires students to execute a hands-on "Constructive Action" project every semester to solve real-world challenges in their workplaces or local communities.
