8. Stevens Institute of Technology
Though actually located in the neighboring state of New Jersey, the Stevens Institute of Technology, currently ranked 701+ in the world, can justifiably be included among the top places to study in New York due to its proximal location across the river from Manhattan Island. Situated on a 55-acre campus on the west bank of the Hudson River, Stevens Institute of Technology provides a nearby escape from the city proper, offering up some stunning views of NYC’s famous skyline.
As its name would imply, the Stevens Institute of Technology has a strong focus on engineering, science and technology subjects, marketing itself as “The Innovation University”. However, it also offers degrees in arts and humanities subjects – and in fact all undergraduates are required to take some humanities courses. Around 6,100 students are enrolled at the Stevens Institute of Technology and just over half are graduate students.

There are three more internationally ranked universities close to New York City, located in adjacent states. These are Rutgers – The State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick (ranked at 279th in the world), the University of Delaware (431-440) and Rutgers – The State University of New Jersey, Newark (601-650). Located outside of New York City center, these universities may appeal to you for their quieter surroundings and less expensive living costs.
