A CAMPUS OF DISTINCTION

ABOUT LIU BROOKLYN

Brooklyn is home to New York City’s fastest growing neighborhoods, and LIU Brooklyn is right in the heart of it all—located steps away from Barclays Center and the trendy restaurants, cafés, and boutiques of Fort Greene. Our beautifully landscaped, selfcontained 11-acre campus offers easy access to the professional opportunities and resources of Manhattan. LIU Brooklyn was ranked the third-safest campus in the nation and the safest in New York City by The Daily Beast.

“

LIU took me with open ar ms after a number of short-lived experiences around Europe and the United States. I’ve been a student at the Brooklyn campus for almost two years now, and the people at LIU have made sure to offer me consistent support and care throughout the entire process of establishing myself as a student and aspiring professional in New York. It’s nice to finally be somewhere that feels like home.”

– Antonio Salameh

SCHOLARSHIPS & FINANCIAL AID

LIU is committed to making your education accessible.

They connect LIU students with scholarships, grants, loans, and work study opportunities.

Free financial aid seminars are offered throughout the year. The seminars provide detailed information about the FAFSA process and how to obtain the maximum amount of aid to fund your college education.

For information about our seminars, contact the Admissions office at 718.488.1011.

The LIU Express Success program offers scholarship opportunities for eligible community college students transferring to LIU with an associate’s degree or 45 credits or more in progress.
