New York Schools Evaluationed & Detailed Information

One of the largest and most populous states in the country, New York should be a first choice for prospective students who like options. New York’s official state motto, Excelsior (or: “Ever Upward”) is one of the most educationally appropriate mottos of any state. This state of nearly 20 million citizens has one of the highest population densities in the country as well, at 416 people per square mile. However, many of the colleges in the state exist outside of the vast city of New York and out in the state’s serene countryside. Students interested in rural settings, suburban settings, and urban settings will be able to easily find options that best suit their needs. Likewise, those interested in traditional 4-year institutions, research universities, smaller, private liberal arts colleges, technical colleges, art schools, music schools and many other various forms of education will likely find exactly what they are looking for.

There are three categories for public colleges and universities in New York: The State University of New York (SUNY) system, the City University of New York (CUNY) system, and the federal service academies. There are two federal service academies in the state: The United States Merchant Marine Academy and the United States Military Academy. Both of these are only available to enlisted members of the armed forces. As there are only five U.S. service academies in the country, New York is unique in hosting two of these within its borders. The U.S. Merchant Marine Academy is focused on the training of marine engineers, navigators, ship administrators, personnel managers and experts in maritime and international law and customs, among other things. The U.S. Military Academy, more popularly known as “West Point”, has a long and honored history as the premier training grounds for U.S. service members, and in particular for the training of past, present and future generals of some notoriety. Notable alumni include Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, William Tecumseh Sherman, George Armstrong Custer, George S. Patton, Douglas MacArthur, as well as former presidents Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower.

The City University of New York is the oldest public university system in the state, as well as the largest urban university system in the country. The City University of New York is unique in that it receives public funding from both the city of New York, and the state of New York. This provides it with a relatively high operating budget of $3 billion. Over 516,000 students are enrolled in schools within the university system, making it one of the largest public university systems in the country (rivaled only by California’s public university and college systems). Established in 1847, The City University of New York is composed of 12 senior colleges, seven community colleges, and seven graduate schools. The oldest of these, City College of New York, was the original school in the CUNY system. Placed at #66, the City College of New York is ranked well for regional colleges by the U.S. News and World Report. While none of the colleges in the CUNY system are nationally ranked, most are ranked well regionally, well within the top 100 schools. Branch College, for example, comes in at #32; Hunter College is tied at #47 with Queens College. The City College of New York system boasts in-state tuition costs that are also well below the national average, and out-of-state tuition costs that are close to the national average for overall tuition costs, meaning even out-of-state students will pay much less than they might at other colleges across the country.

The State University System of New York maintains 64 separate campuses across the state of New York. Serving over 460,000 students (427,000 of which are undergraduates), the system operates on a very large $10.7 billion budget. There are four categories of institutions under the SUNY system: university centers/doctoral institutions (14 schools), university colleges (13 schools), technical colleges (7 schools) and community colleges (28 schools). Many of these

schools account for some of the oldest and most highly ranked colleges in the state. The oldest institution in the system is Postdam, which was established in 1816. Potsdam is placed reasonably at #92 for regional colleges. Other schools in the SUNY system are also well ranked regionally, and a few ranked nationally. The University of Albany is ranked #129 among national universities. SUNY-New Paltz is ranked at #24 regionally, and SUNY-Geneseo is ranked at #14. The SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry is ranked nationally at #89, along with Stony Brook University. Prospective students will find that the SUNY colleges are slightly more expensive than the CUNY colleges, but that they are also more likely to be ranked higher on national and regional collegiate rankings.

There are hundreds of private institutions within the state, many of which are among the best and oldest institutions in the country. The most highly ranked of these includes such colleges as Cornell University (tied for #15 among national universities), Columbia University (tied at #4 nationally), Cooper Union (tied at #2 regionally), Hamilton College (tied at #14 for national liberal arts colleges), New York University (tied at #32 nationally), Vassar College (tied at #12 for national liberal arts colleges) and the University of Rochester (#33 for national universities). Prospective students will find that the average tuition rates for these private colleges are exceptionally high. However, many of the colleges and universities in New York boast some of the highest graduation rates in the country, and some of the highest post-graduation salaries as well.

Online Degrees and Programs in New York

New York State and its post-secondary schools are far behind many other states in offering and supporting online degree programs. According to a 2012 National Center for Education Statistics report, only 6.1% of students enrolled in Title IV programs in the state were in fully-online programs. While this number has likely grown in the past few years, it is likely still well below many states, especially those that boast 20% or more regarding this same statistic. Thankfully, online degrees and programs in the state are mostly inexpensive, especially at the state’s SUNY colleges and universities.

The highest ranked online degree programs can be found primarily at the SUNY colleges. The top of the list includes SUNY-College of Technology at Delhi, SUNY-College of Technology at Alfred, SUNY-College at Plattsburgh, SUNY-College at Oswego and SUNY-College of Technology at Canton. Across the State University of New York system, there are around 400 online programs. At SUNY-College of Technology at Delhi, prospective students will find the #18 best online Bachelor’s program in the U.S., according to the U.S. News and World Report’s annual rankings. Students attending this school online will find such programs as Criminal Justice (Bachelor’s) and Nursing Education (Master’s). The number of online degrees available in the school are relatively small, at just five.

Open SUNY, the State University of New York, maintains an online degree program service. This service is available to all students enrolled in a SUNY institution. Online Bachelor’s, Master’s, Associate’s and certificates are all available through the service. Fifty-three bachelor’s degrees are available, including Criminal Justice, Electrical Engineering, Emergency Management, Education and International Trade and Marketing. Fifty-six Master’s degree programs are offered, which include Childhood Education, Library Science, Music Education and Work and Labor Policy. There are also over 200 Associate’s degree programs available and three Doctoral degrees.
