About This School
Berkeley College-New York is a private for-profit institution located in New York, New York with approximately 1,514 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $25,133 per year. The graduation rate is 40%, and the typical graduate earns $44,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 40% graduation rate and 50% freshman retention rate suggest that many students who start here don't finish, which is a serious red flag worth investigating before enrolling. On the upside, median debt at graduation is a relatively modest $19,000, but median earnings of $44,600 a decade out are underwhelming for a New York City private college at $25,133/year. Worth considering only if you have a clear plan to stay enrolled and a specific career path that aligns with what this school offers — otherwise, the odds are not in your favor.
