If you鈥檙e curious, creative, and ready to explore, this is the place to do it. Pick a major that excites you鈥攚e鈥檒l help you build the skills and confidence to do something great.

I loved the overall program structure, which allowed me to personalize my degree with classes I was eager to take. The overall atmosphere of Marist was welcoming, and I was drawn to the accounting professors, who were always there to lend a helping hand.
