Take A Road Trip
Break free of conventions and find adventure. You might be surprised by what you find—a classic college town surrounded by two rivers, the Appalachian Mountains, and opportunities waiting around every brick-covered street corner. Where prospectors of knowledge, nonconformists, are blazing a new trail. A course that confronts challenges. With the sole purpose of defeating them.
Pioneers never fall in line. But they are joining the long line of those who sought adventure, explored the unknown, and prepared for anything. BREATHE. LET GO. Hear the voice inside you. It’s calling. An undeniable desire to seek answers and the tenacity to put them to good use.
Fall Visit Incentive Program
We have an exciting opportunity for the Class of 2024 to earn a total of $2,000 over four years through our Visit Incentive Program. If you visit the Marietta College campus this fall AND submit your application by December 10, we will automatically include an extra $500 per year in your financial aid award package — guaranteed for all four years!
Visiting campus is the best way to get a feel for the Marietta community and picture yourself here as a student. Tour our facilities, sit in on a class, stay overnight with a current student, and experience our beautiful location.
Once you've visited, be sure to submit your application by December 10 to lock in that additional $2,000 in free money! It's our way of showing incoming first-year students how much we value visiting campus.
This is the place.
