No, Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) does not have its own on-campus dormitories or housing facilities.
While BMCC does not offer its own residential housing, students seeking accommodation near the campus have alternative options. The college provides information and resources to help students explore housing opportunities through other CUNY institutions or external residences.
Exploring Housing Options for BMCC Students
For BMCC students looking for a place to live, especially those new to New York City or seeking a structured college living environment, several avenues can be explored:
CUNY Partner Dormitories
BMCC directs its students to consider housing at other colleges within the City University of New York (CUNY) system that do offer residential facilities. This allows BMCC students to experience dorm life while attending classes at their own campus.
- Queens College: Located in Flushing, Queens, Queens College offers dormitory options that BMCC students may be eligible to apply for.
- City College of New York: Situated in Harlem, Manhattan, City College also provides student housing facilities that BMCC students can explore as a housing solution.
Students interested in these options are encouraged to reach out to the respective colleges' housing departments for specific application processes, availability, and eligibility criteria. More information about these options can often be found through BMCC's student affairs resources.
Other Residence Options
Beyond CUNY partner institutions, students may also consider a variety of other independent residential options available throughout New York City. These could include:
- Private Student Residences: Several organizations operate student-focused residences in New York City that cater to students from various universities.
- Off-Campus Apartments: Many students choose to rent apartments, either individually or with roommates, in neighborhoods accessible to BMCC. This option offers more independence and flexibility.
