I had mediocre SAT scores and managed to get in, although the word is they've upped their standards in recent years (although it doesn't really show in the student body). Honestly, it takes more work to get into the college than it takes to get decent grades once you get here; so if you're hell bent on going to Marist just work hard in high school, get the solid grades and extracurriculars and then get ready for a nice 4 year cruise (depending upon your area of study obviously).
SAT: 1190 Male

I used the commmon app and sent in my SAT scores. In high school, i maintained a 3.7 average and was also involved in many clubs and activities. Marist not only looks at academics, but extracurriculars as well, so I recommend prospective students to get involved in their school and/or community.
