Undergraduate Student Admission

Marymount seeks to enroll students whose educational interests and intellectual abilities are consistent with the goals and character of the university. A Marymount education provides a strong liberal arts foundation and solid career preparation. All undergraduate students take a specified number of credits in the Liberal Arts Core. These include courses in writing, mathematics, the natural and social sciences, humanities, philosophy, and theology/religious studies.

In reviewing applications for admission, Marymount University places primary emphasis on the strength of an applicant’s academic record — the high school record for an entering first-year student or the prior college studies for a transfer student. The university also takes into consideration national test scores, breadth of academic preparation, positive recommendations, and personal character in making its decisions. All submitted documents become university property and cannot be returned.
