Start at Bronx Community College and after you earn your Associate degree you can transfer all your credits to Lehman College, bringing you even closer to obtaining your Bachelor’s degree at a substantially lower cost.

TOP 5 REASONS TO GET AN ASSOCIATE DEGREE FROM BCC:

1.

Affordability

Starting here can mean big savings for you and your family. As part of the CUNY system, we are among a network of colleges that are consistently ranked as best colleges for your money. Paying for college is a big consideration when the cost of annual tuition at private four-year institutions is on average $35,000. Alternatively, the annual cost of tuition at a CUNY 4-year college is $6,930 per academic year, and at BCC tuition comes in at $4,800 per year. What does this mean? By choosing to start at BCC and finish your Bachelor’s degree at Lehman you will save over $2,000 per year to earn your Associate degree. In addition, if you qualify for financial aid (Pell and Tap Grant) you may attend for free. In fact, 90% of our students attend cost free!
