What Our Students Say
Marist College is one of the only institutions of higher learning that recognizes the value that first responders bring to our community, and I wanted to be a part of that community. I also chose to pursue my degree at Marist due to their commitment to educational excellence and diversity.
Douglas Cyr, MPA ‘17When I heard Marist had a Physician Assistant program I was immediately excited, because the heart of Marist College is the dedication to the service of others. With the college's outstanding academic record and prominent reputation in the Hudson Valley and beyond, I knew that Marist would best equip me to serve this community as a Physician Assistant.
Marissa Jimenez, MS in Physician Assistant Studies ‘19I knew that I wanted a very small program so that I could have a lot of hands-on experience and get to know my classmates and professors really well. I attended an open house at Marist in the fall before I applied and was very impressed with the program here. It was clear that I would have a lot of opportunities for internship sites, which is a huge part of the second year of the program.
