Monroe is a good school especially if you want to complete school in a faster time. Monroe provides services in many areas such as financial, academics, and personal services as well. I loved the school of education the most because they made sure the students were their priority.

Great campus and very friendly staff and students.

Katherine

I LOVE Monroe College The support system in all areas is wonderful. Students and staff both care about the success of all their students. .Even the ones who have disabilities

Lillian

It is a great place to graduate fast and get right to work. The small class sizes really help you get one on one time with the professors and they're almost always available. Both the New Rochelle and Bronx campuses are great but you might get lost the first day of class.

    The academics at Monroe College are challenging. The classes are moderate sized and each tutor outlines the course syllabus requirements sufficiently to allow the student to gain core understanding of what is expected as a student. Class participation is a common characteristic of each class. Students are expected to show their skills and knowledge development. Students are quite competitive and focused on education. My favorite class this semester is IT100. This course lays a firm foundation for my BSC Information Technology degree.
