Marymount prides itself on the rigor and success of its College Counseling program. Under the leadership of Pauline Brookfield, Director of College Counseling, Marymount students and their parents receive careful guidance through the various stages of preparing for college. The program is carefully adapted to the needs of each student, helping individual families understand the procedures, opportunities, and complexities of the college admissions process. It ensures that each Marymount senior finds a college suited to her specific interests and abilities. Graduates attend a broad range of institutions of higher learning including large universities, small colleges, and Ivy League. In addition many enroll in highly specialized programs (e.g., art, engineering, pre-med).
Marymount graduates approximately forty-eight students each year, all of whom continue their education at colleges and universities throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. For the classes graduating from 2007 through 2011, the following are schools where three or more Marymount graduates have matriculated.
