Marist College

A lot of people believe that Marist is full of snooty prep kids , but there is actually much more diversity than expected. Everyone is really welcoming and the campus is gorgeous. Food is pretty much exactly what I expected for a typical college dining hall. One thing I absolutely love is the size of my classes, most are cut off at 30 and its a lot better as a learning environment since there's less people. I don't have any complaints except that the library is not open 24 hours, that actually gets to be really annoying- but I think they're trying to change that, so hopefully it'll be open 24/7 soon. Other than that Marist is a great school full of great people!

I love how at Marist College, you are not just a number in the classroom. The teachers here really make an effort to get to know each and every student.

Marist is an amazing school! The students are all really friendly and outgoing; there is a strong sense of community between the students. The faculty and professional staff are very helpful and willing to provide you with information and feedback that you may need. The campus is absolutely beautiful ! The classes are a great size, they are not too large and not to small, the teachers get to know you individually and are very personable. There is a great balance with the social aspect; there is a lot to do on the weekends, but you can always keep it low-key if you'd like. There are plenty of clubs to join, and many activities always being offered on campus. One of the things I like best about Marist is that the campus is very safe, and there is always a friendly smile or face! :)
