Marymount Manhattan is a private school located on the upper east side of Manhattan. Hunter is a CUNY school (city college school) on the upper east side of Manhattan. It’s a nice area–very expensive, but easily accessible to the rest of Manhattan.

Marymount Manhattan costs about $30,000 with housing, which it offers to its students (three dorms). Hunter costs $10,000 without housing (as a comparison, without housing, MMC costs $19,000–MMC is private, and Hunter is a public university).

Hunter is a much larger school with many more major offerings:

MMC only offers 16 majors:

Not sure about SAT and GPA–you can email each school for stats, but you’re probably looking at around a 3.0 (maybe less) and above average SAT scores. (But if you email each school’s admissions office, that’s a really easy way to find out.) Good luck.
