  • 美高梅mgm平台赞赏纽约州评议委员会更新了该州对“大学”的定义,” bringing New York State into alignment with the rest of the country. CICU has advocated for years on behalf of our members – the 100-plus private, 非营利性高等教育机构——让这一重大变革成为现实. 消除这种指定障碍将确保纽约州的大学以一种反映其学术课程深度和广度的方式向国内外潜在学生推销自己，并有助于保留和支持该机构学位的价值.” – Lola W. Brabham, CICI President

In January 2022, the Board of Regents of the NYSED approved an amendment to section 50.《美高梅mgm平台》第1(I)条有关“大学”定义的条文,为全州的各种机构从学院过渡到大学铺平了道路.  The revised definition is as follows:

大学是指提供一系列文科和理科本科和研究生课程的高等教育机构, 包括至少在以下三个学科领域注册的研究生课程, biological sciences, business, education, engineering, fine arts, health professions, humanities, physical sciences and social sciences.”
