Learn More About Marymount : 12 Great Reasons to Attend Marymount

1. We major in success. Put your efforts together with ours, and you'll go places after graduating from Marymount. More than 90 percent of graduates go on to four-year colleges and universities.

2. We'll know your name. At Marymount, you're not a number or a warm body taking up space. Our professors and staff will know you, and you'll find yourself appreciated for your own talents, thoughts and feelings.

3. Our classes are small. No large lecture halls here, no teaching assistants subbing for real professors. You'll get honest-to-goodness professors in classes that average 17 students.

4. You'll get awesome advice. Every Marymount student gets a faculty advisor who can provide you with all the information you'll need to take the right classes and make the right moves. And our Advisement and Transfer Center can help you plan as you begin thinking about life after Marymount and the last two years of your undergraduate education.

5. Did we tell you about our professors? They're the best-really smart, caring and dynamic. You'll get so turned onto and tuned into a subject, be it cultural geography, marine biology or comparative religion, that you'll forget about reality TV (well, maybe).

6. Have you seen our view? You haven't? Well, you'd better get up here and check it out. Think about going to a college with the view of Catalina Island and the Pacific Ocean.

7. You'll never be bored. There's always a ton of stuff to do on campus every day. Get involved in a club or in student government, play on our golf team, shoot some hoops at our courts at Palos Verdes North, or go to one of the many cultural events-movies, lectures, concerts, plays or special dinners. Something's always happening at Marymount.

8. Want to get away for the weekend? Well, we're only 25 miles from downtown Los Angeles, one of the most happening and culturally diverse cities in the country. We're a stone's throw from some of the nicest beaches in the region, and close to Orange County, home to Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm, and to the cool city of Long Beach, Calif.

9. The food is great. Really. Okay, if you just want hamburgers and fries, you can get them. But our Café always-and we mean always-has vegetarian specials, salads and other really terrific options. Options are important at Marymount.

10. We appreciate diversity. At Marymount, we're not all alike-and we're proud of it. We have students from every part of the country-from New York to Hawaii and places in between-and from to 20 countries.

Each year, our graduates go on to a host of name colleges and universities-from local institutions like Loyola Marymount, USC and Chapman; to premier California colleges and universities such as UCLA, Berkeley, Mills, Pitzer and Claremont McKenna; to nationally recognized schools, including Emory, Penn, Brown, NYU, Tulane and Cornell.
