Faculty and staff supported me so well. I could call them, talk to them, email them anytime.
Literally been going to school for the past nine and a half years and I’ve never seen this level of support. You get to online and you just, you don’t feel like you’re alone. You feel like they’re there.
The support that I received at Maryville was very, very unique. However, I never felt like I was just an online student. The teachers and professors that I had here, I felt like they were right next to me, sitting across the room and guiding me through every step of the way, answering any question that I had and always willing to give me a little extra information where I might have needed it.
The professors were great. They reached out to us frequently, just to check and see if there was anything we needed. The advisers were also really great. Same thing, would check on us frequently and were able to answer all of our questions.
At Maryville University, we’re fully committed to your success. Prepare for the future you want with our outcomes-driven online degree and certificate programs.

In fact, our enrollment advisors can request transcripts on your behalf.
