Marywood University is a coeducational, Catholic
liberal arts university located on a 115-acre campus in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Established in 1915 by the Sisters, Servants of the
Immaculate Heart of Mary and currently enrolls
approximately 3,500 students on a national award-winning campus considered one of the most beautiful in the northeast.
Although the college is considered a Catholic college, many of the students that attend, do not associate with this religion or participate in the religious affiliation on campus.
According to
the Princeton Review, Marywood is number 14 on the list of cold stone sober, however this is not true. The University is famous for covering up their students drunken mistakes rather then letting the public know their students party. Reputation is an important thing to them. Scranton has a great college life and finding parties to attend is not hard to do.
Despite being a smaller University they have 9 residence halls in which students may live.
Marywood also offers a wide variety of food for their students. There are 5 different stations which serve a wide selection of food every single day. And unlike most colleges, the menu changes every day. They also have a sandwich station, salad bar, and an ice cream bar.
There is also The Atrium, Connections, Study Grounds, and First Stop.
Marywood is a division III school.
There are 8 Varsity Mens sports and 9 Varsity womens sports.
