    At first glance, Marist appears to be a haven for the Uggs, abercrombie and fitch apparel wearers who are from the tri-state area. However as you look closer there are the few international students who add sum color to the marist atmosphere. There really isnt much diversity on campus but it is evident that the administration is working hard to improve that flaw. Most students tend to think alike and basically come from the same backgrounds with similar core values and morals. The social life is centered around the bars.Marist is a party school, with house parties every week and the usual Tuesday to Saturday night trips to the local bars in Poughkeepsie. Although most students party most days of the week they still find time to get their work done. If you can juggle partying and maintaining a decent gpa then Marist is definitely the school for you read full review

    Marist College is great for students who wish to be in a small suburban area. Some may find cities overwhelming, but Poughkeepsie is not a huge city. Poughkeepsie is a step-down from the overwhelming city life and more of a suburban city. Everything one needs can be found in the area, without having to memorize that Store A is located on the corner of Second and Twentieth. It is also great for students who wish to have a more personalized college experience. The small classroom settings truly allow students to get to know their professors on a personal basis. Marist is also ideal for students who need extra help in Mathematics or Writing because Marist has a Math Lab and Writing Center for students who need extra help, while tutors are also available. read full review
