Question: what do you think of monroe community college?and im thinking of majoring in hotel hospitality, wat type of jobs could you get for that? also maybe sports management wat type of jobs could u get for that? thanks20 months ago
Best AnswerFrom what I hear, there's not a better community college in Monroe than Monroe community college. |
Question: Anyone know of any apartments near Monroe Community College in Rochester NY?Me and two other buddies of mine are looking for apartment complexs near MCC or any where around there. Ones with decent rent and with two rooms, as two of us will room together. Anyone know of any?24 months ago
Best AnswerHere is a link that has a list of apartments near MCC: http://www.monroecc.edu/depts/reshalls/documents/OffCampusHousing2006.pdf , look on pages 10 and 11. I had a friend that lived at Rustic Village and that is basicly right accross the street from MCC, but it doesn't look like they take first year students. |
Question: What's better: Bronx Community College or Monroe College?In terms of finance, education, atmosphere. I want to major in computer information systems. Plus I work 35 hours a week now. What is life credit?29 months ago
Best AnswerI know that since Monroe is a private college the tuition is double that of BCC. BCC is reputable and you can transfer your credits (if needed) to almost any four year college. It is of course a 2 year school. Monroe is more of a school for working adults tho. They grant life credit and really work with you to complete your degree although you have prior commitment.Both campuses are beautiful. And both schools have a good reputation. I would suggest to you Monroe since you have a full time job. However if tuition is a big deal, then BCC is the college for you. (Also the computer science degree at BCC is mostly a stepping stone and the credits should be applied to bachelors degree once finished) http://www.bcc.cuny.edu/DegreePrograms/DegreePrograms.cfm?DegreeID=33 http://www.monroecollege.edu/academics/schoolsandprograms/informationtechnology |
Question: Is monroe college in New York any good?I was wondering because i will be going to that college in the summer and i was wondering if i will have a blast there.36 months ago
Best AnswerHow do you define "good school"? Because no, it's just okay. It is a real school, though, and it has the right type of accreditation. But no, it's not exactly NYU. Will you have a blast there? Are you looking at the Bronx campus, or the one in New Rochelle? For the one in the Bronx, it's right in the heart of the Bronx, and quite close to another university - Fordham. You'll literally have NYC at your feet. The New Rochelle campus is more suburban feeling, but even that has easy access by train to NYC - about a half hour to the heart of Manhattan. |
