School’s Comments:
Institution: Mount St. Mary’s University is dedicated to liberal learning in the pursuit of truth. Mindful of our role in the Catholic Church’s mission to the world and welcoming to all, regardless of religious background, we affirm the values and beliefs central to the Catholic vision of the person and society. We deepen understanding of our faith and its practice in just and compassionate engagement with the world. Our campus environment — with a beautiful, natural setting, historic architecture and active student life — lifts the spirit and cradles the heart. We graduate ethical leaders who are inspired by a passion for learning and lead lives of significance in service to God and others.
President’s Oath: President Tim Trainor made the public “Profession of Faith” and took the “Oath of Fidelity” at his inauguration Oct. 23, 2017.
Dorms: In reference to our residence halls, students are divided by secured floors, with women on one floor and men on another — or they are in separate, private apartments. Additionally, we enforce a strong visitation policy wherein students and guests are not allowed on opposite gender’s floors after midnight on weekdays and after 2am on weekends. This policy allows the Mount to successfully develop students capable of living in an adult community while practicing the highest moral standards.
