Marymount’s location – just six miles or a short Metro ride from D.C. – offers a wealth of opportunities for education, entertainment and fun. Marymount students live and learn in one of the world’s most exciting and influential cities and have many opportunities for leadership and service within a diverse and welcoming academic community. Here, each individual’s ideas, talents, and contributions are valued.

 

Marymount has always been small, intimate, connected. It's never stopped us from focusing on bigger things, big ideas and moving forward. When the university was founded, in 1950, the first goal of this budding Catholic educational institution was the empowerment (personal and financial) of women—at a time when some Ivy League schools still wouldn’t even admit women.

​

Much has changed since then. Marymount went co-ed in the 1980s, and our scope and reach is now worldwide. More than 110 majors and programs of study are offered in four nationally and internationally recognized schools: 

​

• School of Design, Arts, and Humanities

• School of Business and Technology

• School of Sciences, Mathematics, and Education

• Malek School of Health Professions
