Marist College
“Going to Marist has been a great experienceQuite BrightPsychology
Going to Marist has been a great experience for me. In general, the classes are good although my major (psychology) has basically been a joke. I typically find myself being bored, not learning anything of value, and skating by doing little work. Some core classes were OK and criminal justice classes were mostly very interesting. From others I know that the business and COM departments are very good. If you want a competitve psychology program I would look elsewhere though. Otherwise, great place to be, beautiful campus, good parties, great people.

Everyone is so nice, teachers included, parties are fun and numerous but on rare occasions there are quiet nights. Tuesdays are big for going out and Poughkeepsie has decent clubs. Scholastically, Marist has offered a high quality level of education. I love it here, and if your approachable and friendly

“I don't see what's with all the butt-hurtQuite BrightComputer Science
I don't see what's with all the butt-hurt reviews are about. Marist is a decent college (though I am sure it depends on your major). As a Computer Science major, I've been satisfied with the program and the faculty in the department are helpful.
Yes, there are plenty of idiots on campus that enjoy nothing but getting trashed, just like any school. Poughkeepsie is no worse than any other city I've been in. Sketchy? Sure, but I've never had any issues.
All in all, Marist is a decent place with a crappy football team for those of you concerned with spirit. When I was a freshman I had plenty of stuff to do to keep me occupied. And now as a Junior I am getting accepted into an awesome job.Do your research and figure it out for yourself.
