What We Do

Marywood University Graduate students are diverse in many ways. Aside from some of the more common ways of viewing diversity (i.e., race, gender), Marywood graduate students are diverse in their lifestyles. Simply put, Marywood graduate students are part-time, full-time, single/married and returning to earn a graduate degree some years after gaining work experience, while others are attending immediately following the undergraduate experience. The diversity of lifestyles presents a variety of needs by our students. For some students, due to a very demanding career and family life, their graduate student experience is largely, if not only, attending their classes. Students with fewer demands, may seek out a very different graduate student life experience. We believe we're capable of meeting the needs of your lifestyle through the wide array of out-of-class experiences on campus and in the local community.

As a graduate student, it's likely you're familiar with the college environment and its many services. Regardless, we've identified several areas of support, via the site links at the bottom of this page that you may find useful.

If you discover a service you're in need of, but cannot locate it, please contact the Student Engagement Office at marywoodclubs@marywood.edu.

Resources

If you would like to request funding for conference or research expenses, then please fill out Research & Professional Development Funding Request Form.

The following are general guidelines that will be followed in awarding funding, but they are subject to change at the discretion of the Graduate Student Life:

  • You must apply for funding two weeks prior to the date you need to make purchases/complete registrations. Funding will not be granted after the conference has been attended or purchases have been made if a request was not submitted beforehand. Special circumstances will be considered if two weeks’ notice is not given, but not guaranteed.
  • Funding will only be awarded for conferences that do not provide training of any kind.
  • This funding is meant to serve as a supplement towards expenses. This service does not guarantee payment of all expenses.
  • Funding is distributed on a first come first served basis (funds are equally distributed between the fall and spring semesters)
  • Funding requests are not accepted between the months of May and August. Graduate Student Life does not allocate funding during summer months.

Please keep in mind that all funding submissions are FINAL. No alterations may be made to your funding request after submission and GSL will not consider additional compensation for any reason.
