Our 12:1 student to faculty ratio allows for a highly personalized education.

    Our International Admissions team and the Center for Global Engagement work together to assist each and every student through the admissions and arrival process. Once students arrive on campus, we offer academic and extra-curricular support to help international students acclimatize to the campus community. Students are well-prepared for their professional endeavors when they study at Marywood University. Through hands-on learning experiences such as undergraduate and graduate research, clinical rotations, internships, and course-related service projects, students gain in-depth knowledge, practical skills, real-world experience - and in the end, a job.
