The College of New Rochelle was founded in 1904 as the first Catholic college for women in New York State. The College of New Rochelle enrolls over 5,000 students on six campuses across the Greater New York City area. Our academic programs offered in four schools — the School of Arts & Sciences (for women), School of New Resources (for adults), School of Nursing, and Graduate School — are distinguished not only by the strength of our curriculum, but the caliber of faculty who choose to teach at CNR.
