This is an education rooted in human connection and life-changing experiences. This is a place made for you.
Your college experience is more than classes and exams. Your undergraduate years are a time to develop friendships that will last your lifetime. This is your time to get involved in a variety of organizations to practice civic engagement. At Marietta College, you will learn that your place in the world — is everywhere!
Marietta College is a residential campus, so the majority of our students live in one of the College's residence halls or Greek-affiliated housing. Every residence hall is located a short walking distance of academic buildings, dining and athletic facilities.
Campus offers plenty of green space — and students can borrow hammocks when they want to study (or nap) outside during nice afternoons. For a little evening fun, there is a large fire pit area stocked with firewood so students can enjoy bonfires.
The Office of Student Life and the Pioneer Activities Council — a student-run organization — plan live entertainment and other fun events throughout the academic year, ranging from comedians to bingo nights.
