  The Organization & Culture In August 2024, the institution officially transitioned from Manhattan College to Manhattan University. In 2026, the culture is defined by this “University” identity, which reflects a broader global reach and an expanded portfolio of graduate and doctoral programs. As a Lasallian Catholic institution, the environment is rooted in social justice, mutual respect, and a “person-centered” approach to education. The student body is known for being pragmatic and career-focused, which is reflected in the university’s consistent ranking as a top school for student return on investment (ROI) and social mobility.

  The Location: Riverdale, Bronx

  • The “Manhattan” Misnomer: Despite the name, the university is located in the Riverdale section of the Bronx (4513 Manhattan College Pkwy). It moved from Manhattan to this 23-acre leafy, residential campus in 1923.

  • The Best of Both Worlds: The campus offers a traditional, enclosed “college town” feel—complete with a central quad and Gothic architecture—while being just a 35-minute subway ride (via the 1 train) from the heart of Midtown Manhattan.

  • The “Jasper” Neighborhood: The surrounding area is safe and walkable, featuring local favorites like Van Cortlandt Park and the historic “Little Italy” of the Bronx on Arthur Avenue just a short trip away.
