Marist College

I loved how Marist students try hard to build a Marist community.

I didn't like Marist's lack of communication during COVID-19.

Great community located right on the Hudson River. Beautiful campus with lots of ways to get involved. I met many enthusiastic professors that have now become mentors, and I have made friends that will last me for the rest of my life.

The art department is up and coming. The staff and resources are slightly limited but are growing with each year. If you are applying to an arts program, particularly art history, this is something to keep in mind. However, the Communication department is enthusiastic and reputable.

So far I have gotten fantastic opportunities and connections made through the college and peers. I am very content with Marist College.

Certain resources lack attention and proper management.

Not only is the campus beautiful, but the professors and other staff are very professional and really care about the students. They focus on the students not only academically but emotionally and mentally too. The programs are so thought out and provide many hands-on experiences.

It is expensive!

So many incredible experiences and opportunities!

The food and quality of the dorms.

I liked how all the professors are very willing to help you if you ask/need help with an assignment. And most are very understanding.

There is no air conditioning in the freshman dorms and the dining hall closes at 8 pm.
