Find More at Marywood

Marywood University continues to grow with purpose — expanding programs, investing in facilities and technology, and strengthening experiential learning.

At Marywood, students find more than a degree. They find experience, opportunity, community, and support — from day one.

More Experience

At Marywood, you don’t wait until junior year to begin your major. You find hands-on experience from your very first semester — and every semester after that. In labs, studios, clinical spaces, and creative environments, students learn by doing, not just listening.

This day-one approach means graduating with real skills and confidence. Programs are continuously evolving to align with changing career paths, emerging industries, and advancing technology, keeping learning practical, relevant, and future-focused.

More Opportunity

Marywood offers more than 80 undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs across architecture, aviation, health sciences, education, business, communication, arts, and sciences. Students benefit from the resources and experiences of much larger universities paired with the personal attention that makes those opportunities accessible.

With an 11:1 student-to-faculty ratio, professors know students by name and are invested in their success. Faculty members serve as instructors, mentors, and advisors, offering individualized guidance that supports academic growth and career exploration.

More Standout Programs

Marywood offers career-driven programs designed to prepare students for professional success.

Aviation programs offer professional flight training and aviation management pathways through the most trusted aviation programs on the East Coast, combining rigorous technical instruction with extensive hands-on experience in a high-demand, growing industry.

Health Sciences are a cornerstone of Marywood’s academic excellence. The Nursing program has achieved a 100 percent NCLEX licensure pass rate.

Across disciplines, students complete internships, clinical placements, research projects, and faculty-mentored experiences that connect learning to real-world expectations.

Find Your People. Find Your Path.

Marywood is a tight-knit, inclusive community where students are encouraged to be themselves, find their people, and create their own path.

With more than 50 clubs and organizations, students can explore leadership, service, creativity, culture, and special interests. The Office of Student Engagement has earned national recognition, receiving Best Programming & Events honors from the National Association of Campus Activities.

More Campus Life

Athletics are an important part of the Marywood experience. The University sponsors 22 NCAA Division III sports plus Women's Flag Football and Esports (co-ed), with Pacer programs earning conference championships in sports such as field hockey and cross country. Student-athletes thrive in a culture that values balance, teamwork, and discipline.

Campus life extends well beyond athletics, with year-round events, performances, service opportunities, and traditions that bring the community together.

More Than a Campus

Located in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Marywood’s arboretum-style campus offers a classic college setting that shines in all four seasons. From crisp fall days to snowy winters, vibrant springs, and warm summers, the campus is designed to be lived in year-round.

Marywood continues to invest in its campus with new facilities, updated learning spaces, and state-of-the-art technology, ensuring access to modern labs, studios, residence halls, and performance spaces.
