Our Mission
The Residence Life program at Marymount Manhattan College is committed
to the overall growth, development, and education of it's residents. Our
primary goal is to provide a safe, secure, and comfortable educational
environment while providing residents the opportunities to become
involved, exercise their leadership skills, and be part of a
residential community. We seek to promote individual growth:
challenging values and attitudes, developing qualities of respect for
others, intellectual curiosity, social responsibility, cultural
awareness, self-discipline, independent judgment, and personal
responsibility.
Living In a Residential Community
As a resident at MMC, you are a member of a community. Your living
environment is a community as well. As such, we hope that you choose to
share aspects of yourself by participating in a variety of experiences
and group events. Being a part of the residential community will allow
you to learn a great deal about yourself and others. Your college
experience can be greatly enhanced by your out-of-classroom and
community involvement. Each individual has the responsibility to behave
in a manner that does not interfere with the rights of others. In
exercising your personal rights with respect for others, you can help
to ensure a positive environment. For more information, visit our
Policies

Residence Halls
More than 700 students make their home at Marymount Manhattan College
in one of our two residential locations. Think of it as a built-in
community, where there's a good chance your neighbor is your classmate
or a friend you've made in one of your extracurricular activities. At
the same time, you're living in the heart of the cultural and
commercial community that is Manhattan, and you're in a prime location
to take advantage of all that city life has to offer.
