United Nations International School - Manhattan Campus Reviews

A wonderful school with the most diverse student body. Brilliant and passionate teachers. An extraordinary curriculum. A wonderful music program. Millions of opportunities. Nice brilliant and kind kids, mostly. A real hope "for a better world" the school motto. But a trap for students who join in late, so many stories of superstar students in their home or previous school who crash under the pressure, the expectations for assertiveness, time management, organisation skills and don't get the support they need. Too bad, what a waste of opportunity for those, what a wonderful place for the ones who succeed!

Amazing atmosphere, great people. Not the best academics or teachers, and sometimes people have a hard time fitting in. But that's usually rare, and the overall atmosphere, culture, curriculum, extracurricular activities, freedom, facilities, and people make up for it.
The most diverse school in the with students from over 125 countries and speaking over 90 languages. I love the association with the United Nations and it's values. We spend a lot of time at the UN, which is only 20 blocks away from the Manhattan campus. The International baccalaureate program is quite rigorous and prepares us well for college. I also love the options for clubs and sports and the teachers are great.
