Where will a Saint Mary’s education lead you?

Our 12:1 student-faculty ratio might help you find a life-long mentor. A journey to India during Jan Term could show you how one of the fastest growing countries is changing the global economy. A round-table seminar on Candide could give you the confidence to lead a board meeting. And a season playing D1 athletics could help you learn to thrive under pressure.

Where to Begin?

It’s up to you. Explore. Peruse the academic departments that might hold your major. Visit campus to meet your future classmates and get a feel for how you might fit in. Check out student life to see how you could fill your time outside the classroom. And start asking us questions. 

When you’re ready to apply, we’ll walk you through the process. Freshmen and transfer applicants follow unique steps, as do international students. Are you the first in your family to go to college? We’ll help you navigate this new and uncharted path.

Paying for college might seem daunting, but we’re here to help. Serving students of all means, especially those who need assistance, is at the heart of our Lasallian tradition— our Office of Financial Aid will help you connect to the resources you need.
