THE MARYVILLE
DIFFERENCE
We take scholarship, respect and integrity so
seriously that we’ve carved them in stone.
Tour the Maryville College campus and you’ll stop at the Covenant Stone to hear about our
student-initiated Covenant. You’ll hear about the annual Covenant Ceremony for new students,
where they touch the stone as a sign of commitment, and you’ll learn how the College uniquely
lives out the Covenant’s three tenets:
A LOVE OF SCHOLARSHIP that is rooted in the liberal arts, nurtured in major courses and
grown in research opportunities like the Senior Study.
AN ENVIRONMENT OF RESPECT that recognizes differences but encourages students to
find common ground and build community through classroom discussions and participation in
various clubs and organizations.
A COMMITMENT TO INTEGRITY that calls for honesty and dependability in academic
assignments, in career-building experiences offered through Maryville College Works and in life
on campus and beyond.
On the tour you’ll hear more about our 263-acre campus that is beautifully situated between
Knoxville and the Great Smoky Mountains. Our location gives you incredible options for
internships and jobs, outdoor adventures, entertainment and culture. Our 140-acre College
Woods provides you with a recreational haven and natural classroom.
And you’ll learn why ranking organizations
such as U.S. News & World Report, the
Princeton Review and Washington Monthly
consistently rank Maryville among the top
schools in the Southeast.
More than 100 years ago:
Students relaxing on the
Anderson Hall lawn.
Founded in 1819 by Isaac Anderson, a Presbyterian
minister of Scots-Irish descent, Maryville soon
will celebrate its 200th birthday. So schedule that
tour, then apply and enroll — and be a part of the
Bicentennial celebration!
ACADEMICS & ACT
Our liberal arts curriculum was designed
with your future in mind.
Because of its emphasis on how to learn and not just what
to learn, a liberal arts education prepares you not only for
your first job but also for your last job. Our core curriculum
exposes you to different disciplines and viewpoints, equips
you with important skills and requires experiences that MC
graduates say were invaluable to their education.
THE SENIOR STUDY – Graduate schools and employers
will be impressed by your completion of a two-semester,
faculty-supervised research and writing project covering a
topic in your major. You’ll be impressed, too!
“MARYVILLE COLLEGE WORKS” is an exciting
new program that will help you determine what
profession is right for you and what steps you need to
take to get there. Incorporating career planning into all
four years of the curriculum, the program culminates in a
significant practical experience. And with the College’s
location and community partnerships, you could intern
with employers such as the National Park Service, Oak
Ridge National Laboratory, the Knoxville Museum of Art,
ProNova Solutions and Blount Memorial Hospital.
