I find it surprising that there haven't been any recent reviews, positive or otherwise. There should be a few things anyone who's interested in BMCC or any other CUNY college should try to keep in mind:

1) No college will magically make you love it or learning.

You'll find the faculty here to be great as well as the students, decor, location, and student resources but none of that matters if you come into BMCC thinking it will be an easy ride or that you won't have to care. Expect to care and have the right habits to pass your classes. (If you don't have them, get them. The school has programs to advise you and help you get into swing of college.)

2) You'll understand people who understand you.

Most of the faculty here works in the real world and aren't going to be teaching you from a textbook or behind a wall of notes. Always be up front with your professor and you'll get an education you can relate as well as a mutual understanding that you can build on.

3) The median student age is 24.

Not only does the faculty work but so do many of the students. Don't expect this to be a lazy commuter school or a college pretending to be a stuffy frat house. You'll meet other students who have life experience and the maturity to help you out. If you want to make friends, you'll soon notice that a little bit of maturity and an ambition to make something of yourself go a long way.

4) You're going to a small town.

There are 6 locations for BMCC across Manhattan with a big library, huge cafeteria, pool, gym, basketball court, not to mention the many new computer labs. You'll forget that you're in a commuter 2-year college sometimes.

The main campus is two buildings so remember that room numbers can sometimes have a north and south version. The other large campus you have to worry about is the one at Murray Street which is several floors and new with dozens of computers.

5) Always stay on top of the paperwork.

When you've got over 19,000 students and another 10,000 in distance learning, lines will be long no matter what. Take care of your Financial Aid, testing requirements, and registration as early as you can. Once you've been registered for the first time, you can register for your class in any semester after that using Panther, the online registration tool.
