About Queens:

Queens College, located on a beautiful 77-acre campus in Flushing, New York, opened its doors in 1937 with the goal of offering a first-rate education to talented people of all backgrounds and financial means. Part of the City University of New York (CUNY) since its founding in 1961, Queens College is one of CUNY’s largest senior colleges. It enjoys a national reputation for its liberal arts and sciences and professional programs, and was cited in the 2012 edition of The Princeton Review’s The Best 376 Colleges for its academic excellence and generous financial aid packages. The college has 69 undergraduate and 62 graduate programs in four divisions, which offer day and evening courses: Arts and Humanities; Education; Mathematics and the Natural Sciences; and the Social Sciences. Students are taught by top scholars who are dedicated to teaching and research. Of our 641 full-time faculty, nearly 90% have the terminal degree in their fields (not all fields offer doctorates) and 65% have tenure. Over 120,000 students have graduated since the college’s first class of 1941. Our alumni include such household names as Paul Simon and Jerry Seinfeld, as well as the CEOs of major companies and leaders in the fields of medicine, education, media, the law, and politics.
