First-Year Applicant

At Marymount Manhattan College, our goal is to ensure access and equity in our admission process by eliminating obstacles our incoming students may face when completing the application process. Effective immediately, Marymount Manhattan College will be test-optional for our Fall 20’ and Fall 21’ entry term applicants. During this unprecedented time, when SAT and ACT test sites are not as available due to the COVID-19 outbreak, our applicants will no longer need to submit test scores to complete their applications.

Please note that this new policy will not affect our Fall ’20 or Fall 21’ scholarship offerings. Currently, this new admission policy applies to domestic applicants only. We are in the midst of reviewing our policy for international admission. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Office of Admission
