In my search to find a university that would help me maximize my time, I came across Marymount. From the start the admissions office made the process easy and simple to get a decision on being accepted. The Transfer Tuesday option that is available helped me make the decision to transfer an easier one. Another thing that helped was being able to talk to a current student about the college and sitting in on a class, which gave me a good perspective of the college.

As far as the Professors, which are all highly credentialed, so far to date they all have extended their help when ever I asked. The campus itself is located in NYC, which speaks for itself and it is well taken care of. In short the staff and Professors have been very helpful and polite in helping me transition and while attending Marymount. As long as you have a decent work ethic the college will appeal to and you maximize your internship opportunities I would argue that you would be better served in attending at Marymount Manhattan College.

Marymount Manhattan College is unlike any other liberal arts school you are going to find in New York City. The reason for this and I believe the strength of the school is in it's size. MMC is very small and has a relatively small student body. You will never find yourself sitting in a class with 100+ students looking down at a professor trying to engage in the curriculum. Almost all of my classes have less then 20 people and we sit in circles and discuss every topic in the curriculum from International Studies courses to Theater courses. There is a real community bond. I hate to compare the experience to High School but there is a sense that this is a place where you could know everyone. You say "HI" to everyone in the halls and professors know your name and greet you. There are only two buildings to navigate and you get everything you need under these two roofs. It's just a really amazing environment to be in for undergrad. I have a friend at Columbia and he often mentions feeling "lost" and "alone" in a school with so many people. He has said he doesn't hardly know anyone in his giant classes. That doesn't happen at Marymount. By the end of the semester I typically know everyone in my class. It's a really proactive work environment. A perfect place to get an undergraduate degree in Liberal Arts, right in the heart of America's biggest city. It's very exciting!

I believe Marymount helped tremendously towards my future as both a person and a potential employer at many different jobs. My education at Marymount was extremely fun, rewarding, and challenging which has helped make me the person I am today. If you are looking for a school where community and a sense of belonging is a top priority, one where you are not a number, rather the staff and educators know you on a first name basis, and often know more about you than just your first name, then I highly recommend Marymount!Future students need to take into consideration that at a big school they are simply just a number, and will rarely get the chance to have one on one attention, and Marymount allows for the same type of attention that you get in high school, however you get the education, independence, and growth of a typical college.
