I love the school
Overall 4.6
I think that the pandemic hit this school pretty hard, but I also think that was the same everywhere. I started during the pandemic and am an upper classman now and I can tell that since COVID it has gotten a lot better. The campus is more alive, there are more events, and the professors really care about the students.

Personally, love this school. From, the professors to the close commute to the city, this college has everything I need. I have done my fair share of college shopping, and no college felt more open and welcoming. The communications program which I am majoring in has internships and major based classes that will help you acquire skills both on and

Amazing campus, come to manhattanville
Overall 4.4
Manhattanville College is a great place to study. Thanks to it's small campus is really easy to get involve with the community both socially and academically. Your are not just a number in a classroom and most professor would get to know your name and help you outside class. Campus is beautifu and is really friendly when it comes to make new friend

I decided on Manhattanville College mainly for two reasons: the small campus and class sizes, and the proximity to my house, White Plains, and Manhattan. I love the community atmosphere of M'ville because it allows me to easily connect with my peers and professors.

It was the best choice for me academically and extracurricularly. College, like most things is life, is what you make of it. Mville is a wonderful place if you want to have a great college experience.

Manhattanville College is absolutely amazing! It is a small campus in a great area with a diverse student body. The school has beautiful grounds including the spectacular Reid Castle, which completes the look of the college. I love this school very much and have felt at home and happy since I stepped foot on campus. I am honored to be a Valiant.

Manhattanville is a great college overall. From the location to the professors. The location in my opinion is perfect because it is not in NYC, but it is just 30-40 minutes away in either train or car. The college even provides free transportation on weekends to the city. The college is located in Purchase, which is just 10 minutes away from the ci

The school is the worst just care about money and not the students. Run as fast as you can. Horrible professors too. Go anywhere else you will be much better off!
Overall 1.1
coming to this school will forever be one of my biggest regrets. This college is beyond money hungry, does not care for the students in anyway. Transphobic Staff. There is no benefit to coming here, unless you enjoy not getting into any of the classes you need to graduate, paying extra money to finish your degree because of their mistakes

The food is good, but expect an unhappy stomach. The cafeteria staff are better then the teachers. The campus is windy. This school does not cater to the needs of the students. Although their are worse institutions for learning, pick one that properly fosters the growth of its students. There are MUCH BETTER options then this one!!!!

Horrible nursing program. No help at all . They just want your money . And leave you to dry.
Overall 1.5
It's very small niched and you will see all the people day after day. If you don't like someone/ gets along with people, too bad! You'll be seeing them a lot. Not what I expected of a college. Feels and looks old. Very loud in the building. People steal A LOT. Don't feel safe there
Overall 1.6
Everything is horrible about this place and most of the professors are really crappy. After my four years I am completely miserable here and I wish I transferred. Theres not a single thing I would recommend about the school. Even the disability learning centers are squished and uncomfortable. Do NOT come here. It is miserable
Overall 1.7
Clubs are all musical theater or religious. Super cliquey, lunchroom is laid out like it is in Mean Girls. Diversity is just people of like races hanging out with each other. Dorms are dirty and loud; drunk people running in halls. Cafeteria food goes through me every time. School is way too small - only my second year and I know everyone already.
