I am filled with gratitude, pride and joy – for the opportunities Manhattan afforded me. From my mechanical engineering degree to the lifelong friends I’ve made, I have so many unforgettable experiences to take with me. Manhattan was the right choice for me for a lot of reasons. I think you’ll love the small classes, supportive professors, one-of-a-kind internships. You’ll love how easy it is to get to downtown New York City, but also that the campus is removed enough to be quiet and relaxing.
