Apply Now to Complete Your Degree in Italy

The Office of Admission is now accepting applications for the Florence Campus. Applications to complete a Bachelor’s degree in Italy are reviewed on a rolling basis. To compile our class list we do place final dates for sending in applications, however, we continuously process and send our decisions throughout the year.

Many students have questions and concerns about the application process. Some of the most common questions are:

What kind of degree would I be getting in Florence?

Marist Italy graduates receive the same diploma that their peers do in New York. In fact, Marist is the only U.S. bachelor degree-granting institution in Florence.

What should I write about in an essay?

Applicants can write on the topic of their choice or respond to one of three suggested prompts in the application.

What makes a strong applicant?

Marist takes a holistic approach to application review, focusing on both day-to-day performance in the classroom and the personal characteristics of each applicant.

Do I need standardized tests?

Marist is test-optional. Applicants have the choice to submit test scores for consideration, and the Admissions Committee places greater emphasis on high school transcripts.

When can I apply?

Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis. To apply, please use our online application form or the Common App.
