College Of New Rochelle Files For Bankruptcy

The College of New Rochelle officially filed for bankruptcy Friday, and the main campus will be sold via an auction. The college, which closed its doors Aug. 10 after 115 years, filed for Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York.

According to a spokesperson, Mercy College will lease the campus and utilize the facilities for educational activities through 2020.

A&G Realty Partners and B6 Real Estate Advisors, who were retained by CNT as real estate advisors, announced that the deadline to submit qualifying bids to participate in the bankruptcy auction is anticipated to be in early November.

Final bidding procedures and deadlines will be announced once approved by the court.
