The University of Mary is about quality, not quantity; how well, not how many.

So when we toss numbers around, we like them small -- we think you will, too:

* A faculty-student ratio of 1:16 (roughly 2800 students, 175 faculty).

* A four-year graduation guarantee.

* Eight undergraduate divisions with more than 40 degree programs.

* Nine graduate degree programs and certificate studies areas.

To be fair, there is one number that's rather high for us: a 98 percent overall placement rate for our graduates. We don't mind that one.

We're focused as an institution, which means we're able to focus more on you and your educational needs. That, in turn, helps you focus on academic success and lifelong leadership and learning.
