Report. Mount Saint Mary College was established by the Dominican Sisters to offer excellence in education to any qualified student who might seek such an education. The legacy of the Sisters is simple: turn no deserving and qualified student away, especially for reasons and help all good students achieve the success and dreams they hope for. Our college is still informed by the pillars of Spirituality, Study, Community and Service. To maintain those realities and to avoid turning away qualified students becomes more and more challenging with the ever rising cost of education.

Fr. Greg Fluet

Dear friends,

scholarship might mean little. To some of the candidates, however… many of whom I know personally… it meant the difference between dropping out of school or getting more hours on a second job and less study time. It meant books, it meant supplies, and it meant a chance to study at MSMC. Your generosity is creating future nurses, future teachers, and future business leaders. Your generosity is assisting countless others by the service and dedication that these future teachers, nurses, and business leaders will bring to the community. It is an investment in the future. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity and simply put we need more donor scholarships to continue the Dominican legacy of this wonderful college in making the excellence of this college available to all. God bless you and thank you! Fr. Gregoire J. Fluet, Ph.D.
