Marywood is My second home! I came to Marywood from New Hampshire and i feel that Marywood has offered so mush for me. I will be graduating in May of 2018 with my BBA in Management and Marketing. I am excited for my future, and I know that i have made long lasting connections with professors, staff, and fellow students through Marywood!

I am a graduate of the nutrition program, and I loved it at Marywood. The professors are helpful and caring. They helped guide me through the my challenges throughout undergrad, and I still keep in contact with them! Class sizes are small which fosters a close-knit community. I always felt at home at Marywood

Marywood is a beautiful small private Catholic University. I loved living on campus and found many opportunities to join clubs/activities in & outside of my major. There is always something to do on campus. Now, being a graduate, I'm proud to call myself an Alum of MU and wouldn't be where I am today without the amazing opportunities afforded here.

I absolutely hated it there as a transfer student because no one helped you, it's a small school, and you can't chose your professor there’s only one prof except for English. Don’t waste your money here I’m leaving after this semester it awful

Ensuring that every individual in the community feels respected and appreciated is important, and Marywood falls short in upholding this principle.

Place is bankrupt, terminated 10 1st year teachers & lots of staff, and they're in debt up to their eyeballs. Had to get a new president because old one left after she wasted everything dime they had. Financial guy left because, well, he couldn't/wouldn't balance the books. Watch for hefty tuition/room/board increases in 2017!
Overall 1.5
The University offices are useless. If you aren't a well known student leader no one here really cares about you or your future. Professors can be extremely helpful. I was a science major and my advisor was probably the only reason I didn't transfer out. Food sucks. Only nice place to live is the apartments because they let you do what you want

Do not come to this school. I transferred out after my first semester and I genuinely feel like coming here was the worst decision of my life. It is extremely overpriced for the quality of education you get, and it feels like you are going through high school a second time. The food is absolutely terrible, and it makes me feel sick all the time.

It’s a small school with few opportunities. Particularly would not recommend anything in fine arts as professors will only offer more of themselves to those coming in with talent. A really discouraging and lonely experience.

Marywood University fails to prepare students. Instead, they require far too many credits in liberal arts which today's employers could care less about. Rather, they want valuable employees. Although I had some good experiences here, it is largely unheard of elsewhere, which will make all-important networking with national recruiters difficult.
