Video Testimonial from Alexis

Marilka Velez“As an alumna of Mount Mary University, I didn't fully realize during my time as a student how profoundly the personalized attention and high academic standards of this independent institution would shape my confidence, critical thinking, and global perspective.

Today, I deeply understand the value of the work that independent institutions like Mount Mary are doing. Not every student thrives in larger university settings. Mount Mary excels because of the students we serve, the support we offer, and the strong graduation rates that reflect our success. I continue to support Mount Mary University because it is a place where women discover their voice, where they are transformed into confident leaders. More than ever, this work is crucial.

If you believe in the power of women's education... If you believe in the importance of creating changemakers... Then Mount Mary must continue to exist and thrive.

I remain involved because these women represent our future. They are the future of our workforce, and Mount Mary reflects the evolving landscape of our country. Under the leadership of President Isabelle Cherney, Ph.D, Mount Mary is on a strong path forward—and you can help shape that future.

I am Mount Mary.

Yo soy Mount Mary.”

"I wouldn't be where I am today without Mount Mary. If I can take some pressure off a student who maybe has two jobs, childcare and other homelife issues, I'm so thankful to play a small role in their success." - Mary Ann Snedic Wunderlin '63
