Live Your Faith and Service Out Loud
Just like you, we take our faith seriously. Our Catholic identity is one of our core values, since our founding and IHM Sponsorship in 1915. That means we seek the pursuit of truth, goodness, beauty, justice, and common good as a university community.
There are endless ways to engage a faith practice on campus alone or as a group. See for yourself how many possibilities exist to live in service to your faith at Marywood!
鈥淚 knew that Marywood was the perfect fit when I first stepped onto campus during my own orientation. I hadn鈥檛 been to campus prior to that to visit, but came to orientation because both the volleyball and lacrosse coaches said I could play."
