<p>just something to consider -- if you are talking about being able to "drive" to the city -- stop and think about what a hassle it is to find a place to leave your car once you are in the city. a place with easy public transportation to the city may actually be easy to manage.</p>
<p>Marymount is on upper east side, St. Johns Univ in Queens( about 30 min school provided transportation into Manhattan) Fordham-choice of Rose Hill campus-Bronx or Lincoln Ctr in Manhattan, Manhattan College in Riverdale(25 min on train into Manhattan) SUNY Purchase is in White Plains, fairly close.</p>
<p>John Jay is a SUNY in Manhattan, if you want Criminal Justice, but housing is very limited.</p>
