FOCUS Program

At Marywood University, we believe a thoughtful approach is important to selecting an academic program of study. For this reason, the University has developed the FOCUS program - Finding Opportunities and Careers in Undergraduate Studies.

The FOCUS program has three equally important components, all designed to help you make an informed decision about your choice of academic program.

1. Academic Advising
    Specially trained advisors work with the unique needs of FOCUS students by preparing
    individualized advising plans.
2. University 100
    In close collaboration with the Office of Career Services, special sections of this required
    freshman course are designed for FOCUS students.
3. Peer Mentoring
    Through a mentoring program, upperclassmen help acclimate FOCUS students to university life.
    Peers serve as a resources to students by answering questions, referring them to services, or just by
    listening.

If you are unsure of your academic and career direction, Marywood University will provide you with helpful resources through the FOCUS program and the Office of Retention and Advising in order to help ypu find your way and succeed.
