Nursing programs at CUNY Borough of Manhattan Community College
Federal completion data shows nursing credentials awarded at these levels: practical nursing (LPN/LVN) certificate or diploma and associate degree in nursing (ADN). In the most recent reporting year, the school reported about 149 associate-degree nursing graduates. Programs at this level are the faster, lower-cost way into the profession: an ADN typically takes about two years once prerequisites are done, and many graduates later add a bachelor’s through an RN-to-BSN program.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $5,200 a year for in-state students and $8,000 for out-of-state students. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $3,000 a year. About 58% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the associate level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $10,500. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those associate-level nursing graduates at roughly $81,800 one year after finishing and $107,500 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 24% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time and 61% return for a second year.
Applying and licensure
The federal data does not report an overall admission rate for this school, which is typical of open-access colleges. Admission to the nursing major or program is often a separate, competitive step with prerequisites, minimum grades, and capped enrollment. Check deadlines with the nursing department, and read our nursing school requirements guide to prepare. To work as a nurse in New York, graduates apply for a license with the New York State Education Department Office of the Professions and pass the NCLEX. Before you commit, verify the program’s ACEN or CCNE accreditation and state approval, and compare it with other options on our New York nursing schools page.
