International Students


The Mount’s welcoming community includes international students from more than a dozen different countries. The Mount, located just north of Washington DC, helps to prepare men and women for the global community of the 21st century.  Mount St. Mary's University is committed to building a diverse community as part of its educational, Catholic mission.

Please review our undergraduate admission requirements and then contact our Admissions office, who will be happy to tell you more about the Mount. 

Why International Students Come to the Mount

  • The Campus Community - With 86% of students living on campus, and a faculty to student ratio of 14:1, this is a small community where everyone helps each other.
  • Support Services - Our Center for Student Diversity helps to support all students on campus, but specifically underrepresented student populations.
  • Academics - The University offers numerous programs within our Schools of Business, Education, Science and Liberal Arts.  In addition, there are many opportunities to study abroad.
  • Location - Centrally located between Baltimore and Washington DC, yet being able to live in a rural, safe environment is a ideal location for many students.

Undergraduate applications are due by March 1 for the following fall semester.  If you have any other questions about applying to Mount St. Mary's University as an international student and entering as an undergraduate candidate, please contact Breanna Echelmeier in the Admissions Office at 800-448-4347 or echelmeier@msmary.edu.
