Marymount students in a class.

Building Momentum

Marymount’s momentum drives a future of access, innovation, and purpose. This campaign builds on our strong Catholic foundation and inclusive mission, calling on all members of our community—alumni, donors, friends, faculty, staff, and students—to invest in our students, our campus, and our shared legacy.

Momentum will bring to life the bold vision outlined in our strategic plan and provide the financial support needed to propel the university forward for the next 75 years. Marymount has achieved significant milestones, including recognition as a national university by U.S. News & World Report, designation as a Hispanic-Serving Institution, and growing momentum in innovation and student success.

But we cannot rest on these achievements. The future demands that we expand opportunities, upgrade facilities, and augment academic experiences to meet the evolving needs of our students and the world they will lead.
