COVID-19 Testing:
Testing Availability
Marymount Manhattan College’s location in New York City lends itself to a large number of convenient testing sites, many of which operate free of charge. While the footprint of our campus precludes us from administering COVID tests for the community (larger universities, for instance, may have an on-site medical center or be affiliated with a hospital), the College’s Health and Safety team has worked to identify a number of local testing sites near Main Campus and our residence halls.
