\u201cPrograms like life coaching were started almost seven years ago as a tool to provide a unique advantage to our students early in their relationship with Maryville,\u201d said Jennifer McCluskey, PhD, vice president of student success at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP. \u201cWe are invested in ensuring that even before a learner shows up for their first day, we\u2019re creating an environment of access and opportunity to help them understand and capitalize on their strengths. We\u2019re in the business of giving our learners a competitive advantage as they work toward each milestone with us and in their professional careers.\u201d<\/p>\n
For 150 years, Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPhas worked to assess, evolve, and innovate to meet learner needs.

This prestigious recognition is for innovation, leadership, and excellence.<\/p>\n
\u201cInnovation is the lifeblood of the University, and it is essential for the learner of today be they 18 or 55.\u201d Lombardi said. \u201cWe don\u2019t believe in a traditional four-year relationship with our learners. With everything we do, our mission is to take each person who walks through our doors from learner, to earner, and back again.\u201d<\/p>\n
This enrollment milestone validates Maryville\u2019s profound commitment to top-quality affordable education with career outcomes for every learner. Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPbelieves this revolutionary model of higher education works for St. Louis, the region, and the nation.<\/p>\n
