When I came out of Nyack, I was better prepared than most. So many people from other schools have said to me, ‘What program did you go to, because I did not learn the things you learned.’ This is a professional program. It’s rigorous. It’s disciplined. FACULTY STATS When you go out into the workforce, you will stand out, because your education provided a dimension that other schools don’t— compassion and spirituality in addition to academic excellence.” Joanne McCarthy Class of 2010 GLOBALLY ENGAGED Whether you study at our New York City or our Rockland County campus, by attending Nyack College or Alliance Theological Seminary, you will have the opportunity to impact the world. Don’t just read about missions, participate and make a difference. “ One of my favorite courses is Global Service-Learning, which is designed for undergraduate, graduate, and seminary students. They’re life-changing experiences. I’ve taken people to Paris and Austria— to Cuba, Thailand, Kenya, and Geneva. In Honduras, our students work for a pastors’ conference, a communIty outreach, a women’s conference, and a youth conference. I also bring a small medical team. We do a lot of home visitations in order to bring medicine and do as much medical care and evangelism as possible.” Dr. Elaine Eng Associate Professor of Mental Health Counseling 40+ DESTINATIONS IN 10 YEARS AUSTRIA HAITI PHILIPPINES BELGIUM HONG KONG PUERTO RICO BOTSWANA HUNGARY QATAR CAMBODIA INDIA SOUTH AFRICA CHINA IRELAND SPAIN COSTA RICA ISRAEL SWAZILAND CUBA ITALY SWITZERLAND DOMINICAN JAPAN TAIWAN REPUBLIC MEXICO THAILAND ECUADOR MOZAMBIQUE TURKEY EGYPT NAMIBIA UNITED ARAB EL SALVADOR NEPAL EMIRATES FRANCE NETHERLANDS UNITED KINGDOM GERMANY NICARAGUA ZIMBABWE GREECE PALESTINE INTENTIONALLY DIVERSE At Nyack, diversity isn’t a cliché; it’s a core value.
