University of Mary

Founded in 1959 by the Sisters of Annunciation Monastery, the University of Mary is a private, Christian, Catholic, Benedictine university located on the bluffs overlooking the beautiful Missouri River in Bismarck, ND. As one of the most affordable private universities in the nation, Mary offers exceptional educational value as well as outstanding scholarship and financial aid opportunities. Whether you are an undergraduate pursuing your bachelor's degree, or a graduate student pursuing your master's or doctorate, Mary offers values-based, professionally focused academic programs. We also offer many online degree programs and on-site evening/night classes in multiple cities, along with the support and care of a personal advisor. We make going back to school possible for working adults. The University of Mary exists to serve the religious, academic and cultural needs of the people in this region and beyond. We are faithfully Christian, joyfully Catholic, and gratefully Benedictine.
