Returning undergrad. I'm ready to get my socks blown off! When I left the school was undergoing major construction, all for the better in my opinion. It was rather on the small side but seems larger now with plenty up to date renovations from what i saw upon registering. Staff and faculty still the same and from what i can remember they are all helpful for the most part but as expected there are a few rotten teachers who simply just don't give a rats ass for you or anyone else. This is just life! Overall it is a good 4 year community college and i would recommend it to anyone living in the Brooklyn.

I am an incoming Freshman and looking forward to restarting my education career at Medgar Evers College. I am pursuing a degree in Business, in which I can earn a Bachelors Degree. I believe this college in the CUNY system will help me apply my knowledge into the real world and help me continue to prosper as an entrepreneur. Medgar Evers offers a variety of Business pathways, as well as being accredited as a National Business School and recognized as such in a variety of forums. With a diverse culture of the school and the numerous alumni the potential for me arriving here next fall is at an extreme high.
Excellent Public Administration program. The professors are all experienced professionals who have served in upper level management and administrative cabinet positions in government, therefore you learn from first hand experience. The professors want you to learn; they push you to learn; they bend and mold you sufficiently but never break you.
I recommend the Public Administration program highly!
