Testimonial
“New York College was an experience, above all else. I had the opportunity to choose from a variety of majors and to achieve my goals, making a bright future for myself. New York College provides the means and the support for everyone to achieve their full potential and become who they truly want.
From the minute you enter the facilities, you feel special and welcomed. The administrative staff is always there with a warm smile and ready to welcome you and assist in any way they can. And they do! The highly experienced faculty are there to guide you in taking the right steps you need to take in order to follow your dreams and ambitions. With their guidance, patience, kindness, and co-operation you manage to actually do it. For some, it may seem simple and relatively easy to graduate and achieve one’s goals, however there are times when things get hard along the way, and when it can be difficult to keep up. The instructors and Academic Advisors are always there for you in these moments. They are there to support and assist you to take your time and slow down, if necessary. It is all ok, because you are not alone! Through these difficult times we grow and develop resilience for future challenges.
One can learn a great deal at this college. What distinguishes New York College from other colleges is how education is channelled to the students. It is a place which provides stimuli via the people who work there, from the administrative staff to the instructors, who are a positive influence and ultimately help you to become a better version of yourself.
My instructors helped me achieve my goals through gaining knowledge and experience, but they also taught me how to know myself better and how to act and think to achieve my future goals. For that I truly thank them and respect them. I owe them my success and I am honored to have met them.”
