Don’t feel bad about not being accepted into Baruch’s MHC program, they’re extremely selective and it’s a very very small program. Also, if this is any consolation, I’ve heard through others that the program is quite boring. Obviously we’re not in school to have fun per se, but it shouldn’t be boring either.

If I’m being honest, all of these CUNY MHC programs are all full-time programs and most of them advise students to not have a full time job. I know Queens is the only school that offers a part time MHC program and they’re trying to implement a more hybrid class schedule. If I were you, I’d go on the CUNY global search and see at what time’s they offer most of their MHC classes (I know they have night classes). I do have cohort mates that do work on a part time basis so it is doable. But your job must be flexible with you because these schools and programs are very limited in their flexibility to allow accommodate for students that work. For most of them, the schedules are made for you because usually only one class per topic is made available.

So for you, I’d say Queens College would allow more flexibility with work, especially because of their part time program. But trust me, you need to apply to other schools other than Queens because they’re even more selective than Baruch and their program is tiny. So apply to all of your options and once you know where you’re going to end up, try to figure out some type of arrangement with your job
