Hey everyone, I'm currently thinking about starting at a community college in New York before transferring to a four-year university. Can someone provide a list of community colleges in New York that I should look into?
Sure, there are a good number of community colleges in New York, each offering various programs and opportunities. Here's a list of some community colleges that you might want to consider:
1. CUNY Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC)
2. CUNY LaGuardia Community College (LAGCC)
3. CUNY Kingsborough Community College (KCC)
4. CUNY Queensborough Community College (QCC)
5. CUNY Bronx Community College (BCC)
6. CUNY Hostos Community College
7. SUNY Nassau Community College (NCC)
8. SUNY Suffolk County Community College (SCCC)
9. Westchester Community College (WCC)
10. Rockland Community College (RCC)

12. Orange County Community College (SUNY Orange)
13. Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC)

While this list is not exhaustive, it covers a range of options found throughout the state of New York. I'd recommend checking out the websites for these colleges and investigating the programs they offer as well as transfer agreements they might have with four-year universities. Many community colleges have articulation agreements or transfer pathways in place with the four-year institutions, which can help make the transition smoother when you're ready to transfer. As you narrow down your choices, it may also be helpful to visit the campuses if possible, speak with current students and faculty, and consider factors such as location, size, and available resources. Good luck in your search!
