About Maria College:
We’re flexible – with courses offered on days, nights and weekends, you can take courses and continue to work.
We’re affordable – Maria College’s tuition is less than half the national average for private colleges. This, coupled with your tuition discount and, in some cases, an employer contribution, and you’re getting a great deal.
We’re career-focused – We offer programs geared towards career preparation for the region’s fastest-growing industries. Ninety-four percent of our graduates get a job within six months of graduating or continue with their degree.
We care – Founded by the Sisters of Mercy, Maria is dedicated to the core values of service, scholarship, justice, hospitality and diversity. We help students who are academically or financially challenged to succeed, and provide holistic student support services with dedicated professors.
