Marian College is an interesting place that's for sure. Based upon religious (Catholic) values the students here are somwhat closeminded. There are no admissions standards that I know of. If you have a GED they will take you and if you have completed more than 12 credits at another institution of higher learning they will probably take you too.

Here is the best part: Kids walk around campus thinking that Marian College has been in existence since 1851…WRONG!!!

St. Francis Normal, as it was known then, became a four-year, state-approved institution that merged with Immaculate Conception Junior College to form Marian College. In 1937 the college moved to Indianapolis under the direction of Mother M. Clarissa Dillhoff, after securing a state charter and purchasing the James A. Allison estate.

and-

Success brought growing pains and, in 1948, the college began an expansion program that included the addition of Clare Hall, the Gymnasium, and Marian Hall. In 1954, as Marian Hall was completed, the school became the first co-educational Catholic college in Indiana . Two years later the North Central Association accredited Marian.

So think twice beffore coming here. It is both good and bad.
