Established in 1961, the City University of New York Graduate Center fosters advanced graduate education, original research and scholarship, innovative university-wide programs, and vibrant public events that draw upon and contribute to the complex communities of New York City and beyond. Through a broad range of prominent doctoral programs, the CUNY Graduate Center prepares students to be scholars, teachers, experts, and leaders in academia, the arts, and in the private, nonprofit, and government sectors.
Located in the heart of Manhattan, the GC sits near plenty of apartments and condos available for rent. Murray Hill, Gramercy Park, and Greenwich Village are all within walking distance of campus. But if you don’t mind the commute, renting in areas such as Brooklyn, Queens, Hoboken, and Jersey City tends to be cheaper than Manhattan. Commuting is simple with access to the New York City subway and bus system as well as PATH trains to New Jersey and New Jersey Transit.
There is no shortage of things to do near the GC campus, with convenience to the Theater District, world-class museums, exciting restaurants, and much more.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
