Read What Students Are SayingMaryville College taught me how to write a premier college paper. MC also taught me how to manage my time through my freshman classes, faculty, and student body. Maryville College made school interesting and fun through the activities that occur in the classrooms.
Ryan from Knoxville, TN
Maryville College is a great school to be at. It is a pretty diverse campus with students from all backgrounds and countries. The academic life is rigorous =, but it will prepare students very well for their lives after college.
Chehronai from Maryville, TN
It's a great campus. Maryville is about 20 minutes away from Knoxville. They also have a graduation rate.
Shemar from Cordova, TN
Maryville is a beautiful college and has amazing opportunities. Every time i call the people are nice on the phone and answer any questions you need answered, if they don't know the answers they will look it up and get back to you by email in the next couple of hours. I could not be more excited about attending next year.
Kathryn from Austin, TN
If you choose to go to Maryville, then I suggest that you try to get into activities that you enjoy and that way you make new friends who share your interests.

Maryville College is a beautiful, historical college; every building tells a different story. You learn so much in your four years here and you graduate knowing all your professors, and some you didn't even have, on a personal level. Beware though: academics have to come first here in order to do well.
