What Students Are Saying

Like I said before, it's not easy. Professors are tough, but they are there to help you out. Even if some of the professors seem intimidating, they will be there to help you, and they will help you only if you ask though. And even if going to the professor, you feel you need help, there are many ways to get help out at the Mount: tutoring or the learning center. The Mount wants you to graduate, and they want to help you. You just need to ask.

what school doesn't bring a challenge. rigor is what you make of it, but mount st. mary's being a small college gives you one on one attention that you need and available hands on help at your own time.

The GE's are really easy to pass. The professors expect you to do your readings, and stay on track of the syllabus. Stay on top of your readings, and GO TO CLASS EVERYDAY!!!! Attendance does count, and it goes as part of your grade. They try to help you understand, but if you are struggling, we have a learning center where you can get a tutor - GO! it really does make a difference getting help from someone. Overall, the classes are easy as long as you do your part study, do homework, etc.

If you don't study, you're screwed. It may be easy to get in, but it's very difficult academically, and you need to keep on top of your work. I never knew what studying was before I started college!
