Manhattan College is a private Catholic liberal arts college in the Bronx, New York, where Rudolph Giuliani earned his bachelor's degree. Originally established in 1853 by the De La Salle Christian Brothers as an academy for day students, it was later incorporated as an institution of higher education through a charter granted by the New York State Board of Regents. In 1922, it moved from Manhattan to the Riverdale section of the Bronx, roughly 6.4 miles (10.3 km) north of its original location on 131st Street in Manhattanville.
