Gisselle - 11/06/2020

When I first went to the college tour I felt comfortable being inside. I love all the opportunities that Mount Mary offers. They also have great tutoring! I like how the professors let you do late work only when you let them know before the due date.

Patricia - 11/24/2019

My overall opinion about Mount Mary University is that I am happy I transferred to this university. I was a little afraid to go to an all-girls but the experience is AMAZING. Everyone is so positive and welcoming. There's no sense of competition only encouragements. The professors care about your education and make sure you know you can always come to them whenever. The grading scales are a bit intimidating. 90 percent is considered a 'B'. I get through the intimidation by pushing myself to keep my grades as close to an 'A' as possible. The campus is BEAUTIFUL. You can see the beauty of the 100-year-old building through the details in the ceiling, walls, doors, and the engrave words on the outer walls.

Kendra - 07/20/2019

Overall a diverse college that is full of people willing to learn and professors that are willing to help. As a current student I feel the willingness to learn not just in the classrooms but in the library and even the hallways. I love the idea of women supporting women and i see that in Mount Mary.

Tonisha - 04/05/2019

I will be attending Mount Mary in the fall of 2019. I have been on campus numerous of times for events they have hosted for the nursing program etc. I love the good energy, and environment of the school. Faculty and students are really welcoming and nice. It's like everyone is there to help you achieve your goals. The school gets five stars!

    Just like other organizations, my school is set up as a bureaucracy, which can, at times, be frustrating. The faculty is outstanding; however, sometimes it can be hard to get ideas to the administration. Despite this, if I could do it again, I would chose Mount Mary without a doubt in my mind.
