Description

The PLUS Centre is situated on the campus of St. John's University - Queens campus. It provides students with the chance to experience life at an American college in a secure environment located in the heart of Queens, a borough of New York City. Queens, which is one of the largest boroughs in "The City that Never Sleeps", offers a hospitable environment to people from every corner of the world. It is amongst the most ethnically diverse places in the country and the world's most linguistically varied place because of the multiple communities it inhabits.

With convenient access to Manhattan via public transportation, the PLUS Centre presents students with a chance to experience life like a New Yorker while residing safely and comfortably on the St. John's University campus.
The cafeteria is just a short stroll away from the lodging. It is an extensive and up-to-date facility with options for main courses, salads, and desserts.

The picturesque Queens campus can be easily accessed through various modes of transportation, including by car, bus, subway, or air. It is conveniently positioned between JFK and LaGuardia Airports.
