We believe higher education elevates students' knowledge, both academically and practically. That's why we offer 50+ undergraduate areas of study and 70+ graduate programs, degrees, and certificates reinforced by internships, career counseling, mentors, and networking opportunities. We call it outcomes-based learning. Our 100-acre, picturesque campus is located in a safe and scenic community in Westchester County, just 30 minutes away from Manhattan, which provides our students with many cultural experiences and internship opportunities. Manhattanville students completed more than 30,000 hours of service last year in their community and abroad. More than 60 outlets for community service are available on campus, and more than 600 Valiants give their time to service projects. Forty-five undergraduate majors and minors. Seventy-five graduate degrees and advanced certificates. Executive and continuing education. A faculty of 90% with PhDs or the highest degree in their field. Grounds designed by renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted and the castle design of Reid Hall provide an inviting backdrop for learning. Inspired by their environment, Valiants form a close-knit, active community with shared values and a drive to achieve. As much as we enjoy the world beyond Manhattanville's grounds—surrounding Westchester County, nearby New York City—we're just as happy with the community we've built here.
