Read What Students Are SayingMarian is a great place where all the professors make you feel wanted. You're definitely not just a number at this University.
Meredith from Indianapolis, IN
Marian -- I think like any college -- opens up so many doors for you to learn not only the curriculum, but about who you are as a person. Still, I've taken so many classes that I thought were going to be boring general education courses that I had to get out of the way, only to find that they really sparked an interest that I didn't know that I had. Not to say that the courses are too easy, but I've been taking more than the average course load just because I have so many more classes that I am interested in taking and need to fit into four years! Additionally, being the Franciscan university that it is, I have learned a lot more about my own personal faith and Christianity as a whole while in the required theology and philosophy and outside of the classroom. From there, the class sizes are definitely a highpoint for this small campus. I've never been in a class with more than 35 students and that is far higher than the average. One of my classes actually only had two students (myself and another) which allowed plenty of one on one time with the professor. The instructors are amazing! Each and every one of them wants to see you succeed in anything and everything that you do. They have scheduled office hours, but are usually able to rearrange if there is any need.
