Variety of architectural quality and styles, ranging from fantastic to OK. Wonderful artwork. Awsome views to the river, Roosevelt Island and Queensboro Bridge from the roof garden at the center of campus. Green and lush surroundings with sculptures from renowned artist. A quiet gem and a green island in a busy city. Visit on appointment only or during the yearly NYC open day when guides give tours.

Don't see them on SportsCenter too often, but a world class research institution.

I was a partner of a student there when it was the Rockefeller Institute in the late 1980s early 1990s. I have not visited on recent trips to the US mainly probably because I was scared to cross the road although holidayng is also tiring. However, I did enjoy my time there, and remember the very good film club. I did visit once to try to find people to explain my belief that diseases are fake and that the microscope cannot achieve high magnification, as I have done in the nearby Silver Star. I was not a scientist (I'm a former A level politics teacher) but am now starting to enjoy the subject more and something I read yesterday seemed to be hinting that physics, the principles of which are the basis of explanations of microscopy, was unfalisifiable in a way that biology was not.

I've been a patient at the university since I was 7 years old, I'm now 64 in perfect condition mainly because
of the outstanding great care! I was diagnosed with rheumatic fever and only because of there unbelievable
Research I was cured. Thank you really doesn't cover the amazing gratitude and respect I have for the whole staff, I owe my life to this university for without these wonderful doctors and technicians I would not be here today.

Rude to visitors!!! My family and I came to visit the campus to see the grounds on a Sunday. Security would not let us visit at all. My husband is a scientific professor and we visit university campuses all the time, with no problems. Tried to call the university main number to inquire about this, but it routes you back to security. No help.

Interesting complex exclusively for postgraduate scientific students doing all kind of research. 50% of scholars are foreign students. House of laureate and Nobel prizes.

Winning in Noble prize laureates/research personnel in the world, definitely a strong indication. Very old trees on campus make it unique. Masterplan should be reworked, feels like there's no coherency in the planning.

I went here for a class for nursing and it is a beautiful campus with a great view. The cafeteria was a typical cafeteria. the class rooms look updated. A great place to study. Security was great and I felt safe while I was there
