Student services
The transition to college, balancing a demanding academic workload and living away from home for the first time can be challenging. Our accredited Counseling Center is staffed by counselors who specialize in helping you cope with these issues, and address other concerns such as substance abuse and depression.
Housing services
- Living on campus in one of our five residence halls is an important part of the full college experience. Your floormates will become your second family — a network of friends who you'll bond with over shared meals, late night study sessions and Netflix binges.
- Each of our residence halls has a resident director, a staff member who coordinates residence life programming and oversees the resident assistants, better known as RAs. RAs are students, typically upperclassmen, who live on each floor of the hall and serve as a liaison and resource for the residents. RAs plan regular activities, like game night and trips to popular New York City destinations, to create a bonded community on their floor.
Library services
The library building is open to Manhattan College students, faculty, staff, and administrators ONLY.
Medical services
Our on-campus Health Services office is staffed by medical providers who can diagnose and treat minor illnesses and injuries, or help you with a referral to a local hospital or medical practice to care for more serious illnesses and injuries.
