amazing school, love the 18th century- like colony vibes, the old ship that sits on the dock, the colonial actors and mini farms for reenactment

great school, location by the water. nice vibes. giant st Mary statue, with swirling forest paths around it, a hide out in the forest.

If you're not from Long Island, Staten Island or New Jersey, you simply won't fit in at MSMC. There are a few decent bars around, but if you don't like to get destroyed drunk every night, having a social life is impossible. The only degrees that matter here are nursing and education, but unless you want 4 more years of Middle School, just don't

Horrible college. All the professors only care about the money. Worst year of my life. Do not go to this school!!!
Overall 1.3
Terrible school. It's so expensive. They up the tuition every year by an insane amount and don't event tell you. There's a few good professors that are very good and the rest are terrible. it's like high school all over again, the people and groups are so clicky so if you don't have a group your lost. Avoid this school and do yourself a favor.

School is in bad area. Not very creative with activities. Beautiful surroundings, lacking educationally. More like a private high school.
Overall 1.4
The absolute worst school EVER ! I highly do not recommend attending this school unless you are a nursing major and want a degree. The food sucks, the higher up authorities are of no help. I went crying into their office and they asked me if I needed a tissue. The food is terrible and the surrounding area is not the best.

wasn't happy with disability program, they misrepresented themselves. Absolutely no help from instructors, was very disappointed. Administration was a disappointment also, does not represent a true christian take on EDUCATION. DEFINITELY NOT YOUR TRUE CATHOLIC COLLEGE.

I did not enjoy my experience at msmc. I felt like no one was around to help. I could never find any of the teachers. There is also not many spots for commuters to sit. The education program is hard to get into as well.
Overall 1.6
Horrible horrible HORRIBLE SCHOOL for nurisng. They want you to fail 160 something start and like less than 70 pass like 64 maybe. The professors arent the best and even the nice ones say they purposely make this nursing program harder. If you think about coming here let me be your sign to tell you no ,run far as possible. Its all self taught!!!

i went for one year. the campus is beautiful however as soon as you walk off that campus its shocking. hated the area...lots of crime and gang violence. not much to do on the weekend, not a lot of social events that occur on campus. the food is GROSS. the one thing i did like was the small class size. it will be missed.

Overall I did not enjoy my experience at Mount Saint Mary's. The campus is nice but the surrounding area is terrible and dangerous. It's a small school and everyone knows your business. Unless your coming for nursing or education I suggest otherwise. I transferred after my first semester there.
