I think Marymount is a fantastic school for anyone looking for the NYC experience! You live in wonderful dorms and the campus is only a 15 minute walk. The teachers are amazing and the school does everything it can to make you happy. As a performing arts major I get dance everyday and vocal training which is pretty rare.

Rachael

Marymount Manhattan College is a great educational school for those looking into a career in the arts. While other majors are provided and are important, the student will not feel as tended to when watching the art's majors have more at their disposal.

Joelle

You can make your own major! Mine is actually business with a concentration in fashion studies and a minor in journalism

Morgan

Overall, Marymount itself is a good school. I love my professors, and the specific program i'm in is great. As for the student body, the school can't control that very much. Many of the students here are very ignorant, or just haven't adjusted to the college life yet, i'm not sure what it is - but they need to realize that we all go here for a reason, and that we all will most likely be going here for the next four years.

  4. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    It is the kind of institution that individual drive and ambition make the most successful students. There is a lot of flexibility so I was able to do double major, minor, do two full time internships and study abroad. I got the best that Marymount has to offer because I took the iniciative to do so. Not everyone my age has that kind of focus, I understand, but for me Marymount was the best place I could have gone. I wanted a liberal arts education in New York City without feeling like a number.

  7. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    Since everything came easily to me in high school, I did not have to try much to get good grades. I wish I had pushed myself more academically, because the work from my classes was overwhelming at first. It was not particularly hard, there was just so much of it. I wish I had not underestimated the importance of time management and efficiency. I also wish I had known how hard it would be to start managing my own money. I am becoming better with it over time, but I wish I had started improving before I came here.
