Why Choose Marianopolis?
Marianopolis is the place for motivated students to achieve, grow and succeed. We offer a unique combination of academic rigour, personalized support and opportunities for student involvement, with success metrics that are unmatched in the Quebec college network.
Academic excellence
We choose the strongest students from more than 170 high schools throughout Greater Montreal. They come from diverse backgrounds but what they all have in common is a motivation to excel. Providing the best university preparation is part of our unique heritage, and year after year, no other college matches our track record of student success. Not only do Marianopolis students tend to have the strongest R-Scores and the highest on-time graduation rate, they occupy more spots in several competitive university programs than all other Montreal English colleges combined.
Close-knit community
Big enough to offer 6 pre-university DEC programs and 3 Double-DEC programs, small enough to provide personal attention and classes that are, on average, 25% smaller than at public colleges. At Marianopolis you aren’t just a number. You are supported, inspired and challenged. Our faculty get to know you and go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals. They all have advanced degrees in their teaching disciplines, years of on-the-ground experience in their fields of expertise, and passion for their subject matter that is truly contagious.
Vibrant student life
Because college is more than preparing for university. It's also a time for friendship, developing leadership skills, and having fun. Marianopolis has more student clubs than any other college (over 100!) and we are the only college with two 90-minute universal breaks between classes each week. That’s time set aside for you to take advantage of our many extracurricular, athletic and enriching activities, so you can get involved in a cause that you care about, discover new interests, form lifelong bonds with classmates, and enjoy our beautiful campus nestled in green space.
