In its profile of Baruch College, The Princeton Review says “Baruch College’s schools (Weissman School of Arts and Sciences, Marxe School of Public and International Affairs, and the Zicklin School of Business, which is the largest of the three) are located in Manhattan and take full advantage of being in ‘the greatest city of the world’: students here have access to ‘internships, big companies, and…Wall Street.’ Low in-state (as well as reasonable out-of-state) tuition means that many here ‘go to school while already working in interesting and impressive positions…’”
In a survey conducted by Princeton Review, students report that “Students come from all over the world and Baruch is ‘full of bright and ambitious minds’; being a student here “means you learn to interact with peers from all over the world.’”
“Baruch is tied with many companies in New York, which ‘creates even more opportunities for internships as well as job opportunities.’”
