Adult Students

For several decades Marist College has been committed to the education of non-traditional adult students. Academic programs at Marist are available for adult students during the day, evening, or on weekends over six regular course terms throughout the year.

Marist offers programs specifically designed for students 22+ at convenient locations throughout the Mid-Hudson Valley. Depending upon the program enrolled in, students may take courses at Marist locations in Poughkeepsie, Fishkill, Goshen, or Kingston.

The School of Continuing Education provides adult students the convenience of academic advisement, career counseling, placement testing, registration, tuition payment, and orientation at each location.

The mission of Marist has always been to serve the community. In keeping with this philosophy, Marist is now able to make a Marist education more affordable for the adult student by reducing tuition by over 30% for part-time students.

Who is an adult student?
