Am learning a lot
The faculty and staff of Maryville University provide a great opportunity to learn and achieve more. They want you to do great in the path that you have chosen. Even if you struggle with a subject there are student aides there to provide help along with the very approachable teachers.
Am enjoying being here
There is never a dull moment at Maryville!! There are activities going on wherever you and there is something for everyone. If you are not interested in any, you can create your own group! The SNL, comedians, and water balloon fights in the Quad will keep you on your toes!
Bang for the buck
Maryville may be a bit on the pricey side but you will get your money's worth. The admissions staff looks for ways to assist you with your financial needs as much as possible. You will come out of school being well prepared for the real world and confident with yourself and your abilities!
Tips for prospective students
If you are passionate about your schooling and look to be ahead of everyone else...then this is the college for you! Classes may seem hard, but they are making you the best that you can be. Study, study, study and always ask for help if you are confused....it is there! Have fun it is college and this college is never dull especially for a smaller school!!!
Great for these types of students
Maryville specializes in a few different majors: Health Profession students, Education, Business, and Art majors.

Am learning a lot
Maryville has helped me figure out who I am and who I am becoming. It sounds a little cheesy when I put it that way but it's true. The people here are so kind and understanding. Everyday I learn something new about either myself, others, or something school related and I love it!
Am enjoying being here
I have never been happier. I made friends within the first day I was on campus and those same people are still my best friends. I consider Maryville my home now. When I go back to my real home, I miss school so much.
Bang for the buck
I won't lie, it's expensive, but which college isn't. College is like food. I don't mind paying a lot for it if the quality is good.
Tips for prospective students
-Expect change from yourself. Change isn't always a bad thing.
-Stay open-minded about everything. There is so much to explore.
-Don't forget to eat and sleep. Believe it or not, it's important.
-Have fun. Time goes by much too fast.
Great for these types of students
-People who like to have some really close friends, not tons of semi-close friends.
-Both partiers and non-partiers alike.
-People who like to be involved. There are plenty of clubs who need members.
-People who love sports. There is so much team spirit. Intramurals are a blast too!

Maryville University welcomes all students right away. There are great teachers to learn from, students to become great friends with, and extremely helpful and energetic faculty members always there to help you along the way. Its definitely a home away from home.
Tips for prospective students
Maryville welcomes each prospective student with open arms. Just within the first few weeks there, you get the opportunity to meet so many other great people who have chosen this college as their home that you will be amazed how many friends you make!
Academic Rigor
The academics at Maryville are quite challenging...it is one of the 100 top colleges after all! There's no room for slacking off here, which only makes you into more of what you are searching to become.
Dorm Life
In Dorm Life at Maryville, there are a variety of activities to become apart of. You can have a roommate of your choosing or of their choosing. The R.A's are always on watch and keep a careful eye on what is going on at all hours.
Food and Dining
We recently revamped our dining hall at Maryville and might I say it is just beautiful. You get the opportunity to choose from a variety of different foods from stir-frys to salads to hamburgers and the list just goes on! And if you don't feel like eating inside, we have beautiful outdoor seating for students to enjoy.
What to do for fun
For fun, most of Maryville's students attend the comedian nights or movie nights! The campus sets up a movie theatre in our auditorium and we have a night to ourselves after all of our studying.
Bang for the buck
Something that gives Maryville their bang for their buck is the outrageous academic program. They offer the best programs around and with the best teachers to accompany them.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
We have a few trails that lead through the woods around campus that bring a little home away from home to all of us small town folks who attend Maryville. We really enjoy this. We also have many deer and geese who like to habitat on campus that will walk down our roads and bring joy to all of the students.
Clubs and Activities
The Clubs and Activities at Maryville breach from Physical Therapy or Occupational Therapy clubs to A Capella groups, sports clubs, and volunteer groups. There's a little something for everyone!
Campus Safety
The Campus has a 24-hour safety policy whom you can call upon at any time. They are always super friendly and willing to help anyone out at any point in time.

Knowledgeable professors.
Schedule Flexibility.

Don't be afraid to ask for help with the computer software if needed. Utilize your academic advisers.

A mall is literally right down the street! There are also tons of other shopping strips and stores to go to. A public library is very close as well. You are close to an event holder to purchase tickets and attend concerts and shows!
