ALUMNI TESTIMONIAL
WHY MARYVILLE
“I toured Maryville and looked at the nursing program in June, before my senior year of high school. It was a great decision, because someday I can help kids like me.”
As a nursing major, I’ve been able to experience a lot of things in Walker Hall in the advanced labs, and I’ve been able to have clinicals at some of the highest-ranked hospitals in the nation here in St. Louis.”
