Review of University of Mary

from Monticello, MN

Describe your college in three sentences.

University of Mary is the only school I looked at that I didn't feel like just another number because everyone was so welcoming. It is not in the city, and I like that because you get to know the people you are with. It is the perfect size, and I would recommend it to anyone looking!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

When you visit, don't be afraid to ask questions and get to know people! It has helped me so much through my entire process.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

I have not taken any classes yet, but from talking to people, the staff push you to do your best, and expect the best from you. They want their students to succeed. They care more than most colleges do.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Everyone was really nice! I got to meet some people from my hall when I visited, and they were great! Very welcoming.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I thought the food was great for cafeteria food. Obviously it wasn't a home cooked meal, but it was still really good! I like that the cafeteria is open 24/7.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Lots of organizations around campus put on events. They have a wide variety of events, and they do their best to appeal to every personality. I love how they always have something to do, and something going on.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Most affordable private college I looked at, and actually compared to the state schools I looked at.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

They encourage you to grow as a person and in your faith which not many other colleges really push you to do.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There is something for everyone!

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

I felt very safe and comfortable while I was there.
