Brooklyn College is located roughly three miles south of Downtown Brooklyn in the Midwood neighborhood. This public college was established in 1910 and has become increasingly selective. The school offers about 175 degree programs, including graduate degrees and advanced certificate programs. The deceptively green campus -- complete with lush courtyards and fountains -- belies its ultra-urban location. Brooklyn College is well-known for its beautiful campus. The college is also top-ranked for value and diversity. Like most neighborhoods in Brooklyn, Midwood is very diverse, walkable, and bike-friendly. It is defined by single-family homes along tree-lined streets. Closer to Avenue I and Ocean Avenue, you'll find the much-more-typical brick apartment buildings complete with iron fire escapes and historic details like arches and gables. If you plan to travel throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan, choose an area near the subway station for your Brooklyn College area apartment -- you'll find subway stations along Avenue H, Avenue J, Newkirk Avenue, and Flatbush Avenue near the college.
