Queens College enjoys a national reputation for its liberal arts and science programs, its world-class faculty, and its affordability. Ninety percent of our students who graduate in four years receive their degrees without any student loan debt.
A storied institution with a long history of graduating students who go on to serve our global community, Queens College (QC)—a senior college of The City University of New York (CUNY)—will challenge you and help you build your future.
Since its founding in 1937, Queens College has enjoyed a national reputation for its liberal arts and science programs, its world-class faculty, and its affordability. Less than 10 miles from Manhattan, Queens College offers exciting academics and an innovative program that no other college in New York City offers: QC in 4, which guarantees that you will graduate in four years.
Opportunities to study abroad and internships abound, some right on campus in our Tech Incubator, where students can learn from budding entrepreneurs. Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest and most respected undergraduate honors organization in the United States, has a chapter at Queens, a distinction shared with only 10 percent of the nation's liberal arts colleges. And all this happens on a beautiful 80-acre campus with a centrally located residence hall, top recreational facilities, and the only Division II athletics program in CUNY.
Thanks to our low tuition and generous financial aid, 90 percent of our students who graduate in four years receive their degrees without any student loan debt. The Princeton Review ranked Queens College a "Best Value College" in 2019, and Forbes and Money magazines have consistently praised QC for its outstanding academics, world-class faculty, generous financial aid packages, and affordable tuition. Over 60 percent of students benefit from financial aid, including grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study opportunities. The college is also a proud participant in New York State's Excelsior Scholarship program, which provides free tuition to eligible students.
QC is one of America's most diverse colleges, in every sense of the word. We educate students of all ages and interests. Three military guides recognize us for our support of veterans and members of the armed services. We make every effort to accommodate people with disabilities. Culturally, we reflect the population of our home borough: Our students come from all over the world and many speak a language other than English. As a result, this campus offers a unique learning environment that prepares our alums to enter the global economy and effect change, wherever their lives and careers may take them.
