Greg from Princeton, WI
This summer I took a math course online and was very pleased to find that my instructor was always available to help, and very patient with me. Math is not my strongest point but he helped me get an A and I took away a lot of information that I wont be forgetting anytime soon.

Accommodating. Friendly. Inspiring.
Marian has helped me from the moment I took the campus tour two years ago up until my current enrollment in the school. We all have things come up in our lives and Marian made it easy to find courses and a program that would benefit my schedule.

Marian University offers a program where you are truly not a number but are a name. The small campus makes it a very comfortable and involved environment to be a part of. The nursing faculty is dedicated to ensuring that you become the best nurse you can be and are excited to join you on this special journey of your life.
