Our Campus

The College’s intimate campus helps create an academic atmosphere that embraces both the timeless and the contemporary: timeless, because of the commitment to humanities-based learning, and contemporary, because of the modern environment in which these classic convictions of the human spirit are nurtured.

Maria’s Main Building was constructed in 1959, and today houses classrooms, computer and information processing laboratories, multimedia and learning resource centers, administrative and faculty offices, and a working library with more than 59,000 volumes and Internet access.

The cloistered convent of a Dominican order was purchased from the Catholic Diocese of Albany in 1970 to house Maria’s health care programs, and in 1984, was transformed into a state-of-the-art allied health facility. The convent—renamed Marian Hall—had been renovated to preserve architectural integrity and in 1986, was designated an historic building by the Historic Albany Foundation.
