'The College of New Rochelle' is a private Catholic college with its main campus located in New Rochelle, New York. The College was founded in 1904 by the Order of the Ursulines. Other colleges are found a short distance away.
Its oldest school, The School of Arts & Sciences, is, as it was in 1904, a women's college. It offers courses in the liberal arts, pre-medicine, pre-law, communication arts and business. The three newer Schools (School of Nursing, School of New Resources and the Graduate School) are open to both men and women. Since its Centennial Year in 2004, the annual Commencement Exercises moved from Maura Lawn to Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
The School's current President is Stephen Sweeny, Ph.D., who is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors for La Salle Academy.
