My time as a student at Baruch has been close to a nightmare. I’ve never been so stressed in my life. I’ve never attended a more money driven school. I can’t speak for other CUNY schools, but Baruch operates on another level.
The biggest issue is the lack of flexibility and support from administration. Everything is very black and white, with little consideration for individual situations. There are fees for everything, and policies are enforced in ways that feel excessive, while actual student support is limited.
A major example of this is registration. I am currently being blocked from enrolling in the last course I need in order to graduate. I have already applied for Summer graduation and paid for commencement, yet I cannot register because I am in the evening MBA program and all of the courses being offered this semester are restricted to online MBA students. This leaves little to no options for traditional MBA students, even when the course is required for graduation. I understand reserving some seats, but restricting all available options makes it nearly impossible to complete the program on time.
Communication is also a major issue. It’s difficult to reach anyone by phone, and email responses can take days, yet there is no flexibility when it comes to strict deadlines and penalties. When you do get a response, it often lacks empathy and feels dismissive.
The professors, however, have been great. But overall, the administrative experience has been frustrating and stressful. Policies should support students trying to graduate and move forward, not create unnecessary barriers.
Would I recommend this school? It wouldn’t be my first choice. I would suggest doing thorough research on the administrative team and their policies before committing, because situations like this can quickly change the trajectory of your college journey.

Baruch college?? SO YOU OFFER courses in law and ethics that touch on topics related to sexual harassment, violence against women, workplace misconduct, and public policy.
Some relevant courses include:
LAW 9770 "Labor and Employment Law" - discusses workplace sexual harassment, discrimination, whistleblowing, and employment rights.
LAW 4906 "Women, Law, and Policy" - examines women's legal rights, violence against women, equality, and social/legal policy issues.
LAW 9000 / LAW 9201 "Legal and Ethical Environment of Business" and "Overview of Business Law and Ethics" - focus on ethics, legal responsibility, and professional conduct in business environments.
Baruch also has active Title IX and sexual misconduct policies addressing sexual assault, harassment, stalking, and gender-based violence on campus. SO YOU TEACH THESE PRINCIPLES BUT DO NOT PRACTICE IT WHAT A JOKE OF A SCHOOL YOU SHOULD BE AHSAMED OF YOURSELF

Lectures were mostly power points. Unfortunately they could not accommodate me when I requested remote learning options so I was forced to withdraw.

Would give them 0 stars if possible. Employees are working slow to almost not working. They need to fix all the used places (elevators, computers, dining places) for the money college receives. Total disappointment!

I liked my classes and the professors, but it was hard to find classes that matches my schedule. Countless times there were classes available but wouldn't let students register reserving them for specific groups. Scheduling was very challenging. The staff doesn't care if you need help. They would find a reason to say no. Their superiors are even worst. They frown at students.

It's one of the worst universities in terms of organization. Do you have a problem? It will take at least three weeks to resolve. They'll send you from department to department. They won't answer your emails, and don’t even talk about phone calls. They'll just hang up on you, or at best, they won't answer at all. It took three and a half months to resolve a problem as simple as registering for classes.
