Nyack College Manhattan Center (NCMC) offers a liberal arts education with 16 majors, minors and many concentrations. NCMC students value the close community that Nyack offers; classes small enough to promote a better learning experience, and a place where you know that the faculty cares.

Since New York City is our campus, making solid “connections” here will be an integral part of your experience. If you are ready to make Nyack College Manhattan Center your next connection, now is the time to go through the admissions process. If you are as committed as most of our students, you want to make a wise decision by first checking out your financial aid possibilities.

Financial aid programs help you by paying close attention to your needs, your qualifications for scholarships and post-graduate plans. We know it is not easy making ends meet in this city, so NCMC will help you creatively design a financial aid package that works for you. This financial aid package is determined by many things: your academic achievement, leadership abilities, performance, excellence and your family’s financial contribution. Through a combination of scholarships, grants, and loans, an education at Nyack College Manhattan Center is an affordable one. In fact, more than 90% of our students receive some form of financial aid.

In addition, Nyack itself offers thousands of dollars in aid each year. Called the Nyack Awards, many students have benefited from one of these grants which range from $500 to $5,000 per year.

Applying as a NON-MATRICULATED or a VISITING student, you will not be registered for a program leading to a degree at Nyack College. Students who have not completed a high school degree may be accepted as non-matriculated part-time students. Such students may not be certified for certain forms of financial aid and scholarships and must be reviewed by the Admissions Office prior to being admitted to a degree program. Students accepted on a non-matriculated status may enroll for up to a maximum of 24 credits under that status. Course work taken as a non-matriculant may not be applicable to certain majors if matriculated status is desired at a later time.

So are you ready to sign on the dotted line? It is really that easy. In addition to demonstrating a personal faith in Jesus Christ, college-level academic ability and agreement with Nyack’s mission and standards of faith and conduct, you should submit (detailed procedures and forms are included below on this page):

  • Application for admission and $25 fee
  • Pastoral recommendation
