The MA program in museum studies is poorly planned by the school. Because it takes place entirely in Italy, there are many other factors that students need to independently prepare for, and which do not necessarily coincide with the normal school calendar. The Financial Aid department is completely inept, rude, and generally unwilling to help grad students plan this huge undertaking and has been a nightmare to work with for the last year. If you are financing this yourself, you should be fine as the academic coordinator and faculty in Italy are quite wonderful, but unfortunately are not able to help lessen the hair-pulling frustrations that characterize any dealings with Marist's administrative offices.

This program serves the needs of the instructors not the students. As a working professional in a M.A. program, I expect professionalism, applicable instruction, and an understanding of what it means to be an online graduate student. I would never recommend this program- you simply have to work around the instructors.

Marist cares much about getting their dollars out of you. they caer little about the quality of classes. It does have a few excellent teachers in the graduate program of school psychology, but there are also your share of useless ones. Classe are very often overcrowded. Summer class workloads are not altered to accomidate the shorter class time. Some of the graduate classes are repetitive and not very useful. your internship is your greatest opportunity to learn about the field.

Only go here if you are a rich self-absorbed abercrombie and fitch wearing blond anorexic girl, or if you want to meet those girls.
