From a freshman class of 44 students in 1955, Molloy has grown to serve 3,300 undergraduates (36% first-generation). In recognition of the extensive master’s and Ph.D. programs offered, the New York State Board of Regents recently approved a name change from “Molloy College” to “Molloy University”.
The school’s nursing program has been ranked #1 in New York State and among the top 10% nationally. Molloy also excels in accounting, health sciences, music therapy and special education. A 10:1 faculty-student ratio ensures small classes and personal attention. In 2020, Money Magazine ranked Molloy the #3 “Best Value” among all U.S. colleges. Earnings of graduates are well above the national average — averaging more than $60,000 six years after graduation.
Offering more than 60 student clubs and organizations, Molloy has 19 varsity sports teams that play in the NCAA Division II East Coast Conference.
