Description
Located just outside of New York City, Nyack College is a four-year Christian school where exceptional academics are regarded as just another way of glorifying God.
Located in the town of Nyack in Rockland County, Nyack College grants undergraduate and graduate degrees in academic subjects such as English, History, Intercultural Studies and Sociology. Theological programs include academically oriented programs such as Biblical Literature and Theological Studies as well as ministerial degrees such as Christian Ministry and Pastoral Ministry. Professional fields encompass Business, Counseling, Education and Nursing.
Since the great majority of faculty hold doctorates or terminal degrees of some sort, the level of scholarship at Nyack College is superior. Not only that, but many of the faculty have degrees from ivy league or prestigious private universities such as Columbia University, Syracuse University, Princeton and Rutgers. A substantial number are also published authors in their field.
However, while academics are a significant component of the Nyack experience, spiritual and religious activities are as well. Chapel services and worship and prayer groups are conducted regularly, as are ministry activities.
Since Nyack is about 20 minutes from downtown Manhattan, much of the student life revolves around the numerous activities and cultural experiences to be found in the city.
Admissions and application information may be obtained by contacting a Nyack College representative.
Financial aid is available to those who meet eligibility requirements.
