The Maurice R. Greenberg School of Risk Management, Insurance and Actuarial Science (GSRM) has a rich history and tradition. It was formed initially as the Insurance Society of New York in 1901, and became the School of Insurance in 1947 and the College of Insurance (TCI) in 1962. GSRM evolved from the merger of TCI and St. John's University in 2001. The academic programs, faculty, student services, and historic library are located on our state of the art campus at 101 Astor Place in Manhattan.
GSRM is a global leader in risk and insurance education and training and draws candidates from all regions of the world. All of the degree programs offered by The Peter J. Tobin College of Business, and thus by GSRM, are fully accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
