Three words: affordable, convenient, and over-crowded.
The only reason I came to York College because the transportation was convenient. Other than that, most of the people there are nice. It has any major.

Winnie from Elmont, NY
A large diverse population of students and professors from all walks of life and areas of the world. They are clubs and organizations that help people build life-long friendships. The faculty are actually more helpful than I expected, and keep their cool with stressed college students.
