Maryville University of St. Louis enrolls nearly 6,500 undergraduate and graduate students across six colleges and schools. Many academic programs feature programmatic accreditation, and undergraduates can supplement their degree by completing an optional minor. Additionally, this Missouri university features dozens of bachelor's and master's degrees that learners can earn entirely online. Maryville provides three options for undergraduates who want a more rigorous and fulfilling educational experience: the Bascom Honors Program includes learning communities and exclusive courses, the Distinguished Fellowship Program provides financial assistance to degree-seekers performing original research, and the Global Scholars Program offers three study abroad experiences as well as a minor in international studies. Maryville accepts GED and HiSET scores. Although the university is a test-optional institution, prospective students planning to apply for university-funded financial aid should submit ACT or SAT scores. Merit-based scholarships at this Missouri university award between $6,000 and $14,000 per year.

Graduation Rate Insight
75% of students graduated out of all full-time, first-time students who began their studies in Fall 2014. Keep in mind many students who enroll are not typically first-time students, as most are adult learners. Therefore, the number of first-time students is traditionally low.
