Hunter College




Hunter College is made up of 4 buildings within a block of each other in the middle of Manhattan and part of the City University of New York (CUNY) system of which there are 23 institutions total serving the 5 boroughs of NYC. 21,000 students (undergrad+ grad) attend Hunter who, for the most part, are all commuters.

The Macauley Honors College is a special program within the CUNY system that provides a full tuition scholarship for 4 years as well as housing and a $7500 study grant. Only 100 Hunter students per year are accepted into this program, so it is much more competitive than is regular admission to Hunter.

Known as a research institution, Hunter incorporates the big city into it's curriculum and requires students to complete internships. Tuition is very low, about the same as at a SUNY. Education and Health Sciences are popular majors.
