Sophomore: I absolutely loved the gorgeous campus and the kind people the greeted me on this campus! The education is very high quality, and the dorms are so welcoming to new students. Each building is unique and the view is amazing since we are in the mountains. They offer many great majors that are Christ-focused and prepares the students to server Christ with a Biblical mindset, not matter your major. One thing I would say they could change is the lack of storage on campus as there are many out-of-state students who have to make ends meet elsewhere. Overall it is a great school and a great community!... Read 222 reviews

Alum: I am a Marywood graduate & also blessed to work here. My work for the past 30+ years has been gratifying in many ways, but I want to review Marywood based on my student experience + what I observe about our current students. You will not find a more friendly, welcoming campus than Marywood. You are encouraged to learn and train in your major, but also to experience classes that broaden your mind, deepen your perspective, and open you to new experiences. You get a strong education and practical experience to obtain a job in your field, but also can discuss meaningful topics beyond your field. A Marywood education affords one a versatilie skill set that is especially needed in today's changing workforce landscape. Our students are happy, community-oriented people who love to have fun and serve others. My own love for serving others started here. Marywood has many benefits of a large university, but in a small school setting. Best of both worlds on a beautiful campus!... Read 598 reviews
