VISION
      Marianopolis College, drawing on its rich educational heritage,
 strives to be a leader in building a dynamic and supportive environment
       where students can grow both personally and intellectually.
  Marianopolis students will be prepared to pursue academic excellence
    in their studies, become self-directed life-long learners and make
    positive contributions as citizens of a complex and changing world.

                              MISSION
    The student is the centre of the Marianopolis learning community.
 Our heritage links us directly through the Congrégation de Notre-Dame
      to the first educational endeavours of 17th Century Ville Marie;
            it shapes our vision of the dignity of the individual
             and our quest for knowledge and understanding.
      Marianopolis welcomes students from all cultures, faiths, and
      social and economic backgrounds to come together within and
  beyond the classroom in mutual respect and trust. We strive to create
    an exciting learning environment encouraging innovative teaching
        and incorporating technology to better serve our students.
At Marianopolis, we encourage each other to think critically and creatively,
       communicate effectively, act with integrity, promote social
         and political justice and practice responsible stewardship
                       of the natural environment.

College Overview
INTRODUCTION TO MARIANOPOLIS COLLEGE
For more than a century, Marianopolis has provided a student-friendly environment where motivated young people
achieve their goals, grow as global citizens and succeed at university and beyond.
The College’s track record is one of change, development and growth from its earliest days to the present. In 1908, the
Congrégation de Notre-Dame established Notre Dame Ladies’ College, a bilingual school and the first institution of higher
learning for English Catholic women in Quebec. In 1926, it was renamed Marguerite Bourgeoys College. During World War
II, its English sector’s curriculum was named Marianopolis and reorganized along the lines of English-language universities
to include programs in general science and honours chemistry. In 1969, Marianopolis accepted its first male students and
admitted its first students to a CEGEP-equivalent program.
Today, Marianopolis is recognized as one of the top pre-university colleges in Quebec, with a culturally diverse student
body of 2,000 students from more than 180 high schools, public and private, English and French, from across the province
and abroad. A majority of Marianopolis graduates attend university in their top choice of program.
1854 | The Congrégation de Notre-Dame purchases property at the foot of Mount Royal from Samuel Cornwallis Monk as a
future site for its educational mission.
1926 | The College moves to what is its present campus, to a building designed by J.O. Marchand, the most nationally
prominent Quebec architect of his time, creator of such architecturally significant buildings as the Municipal Courthouse
and the Peace Tower of Parliament’s Centre Block.
1947 | Marianopolis grants its first Bachelor of Science degrees.
1969 | Marianopolis also admits its first students to a CEGEP-equivalent program. The deans of the College and of McGill
University’s Faculty of Music agree to have Marianopolis music students participate in McGill choral and instrumental
ensembles. Almost half a century later, Marianopolis remains the only college whose students enjoy this unique
relationship to McGill.
1971 | The first male students graduate from Marianopolis. The College grants its first Diploma of Collegial Studies.
1999 | With the introduction of a lay board and the establishment of the Marianopolis Millennium Foundation, the
College begins the preparations to return to 4873 Westmount Ave. The building is modernized: nuns’ quarters are
transformed into state-of-the-art science labs and a double gymnasium is built underground.
2007 | The 2007-2008 academic year begins at the current location.
2008 | Marianopolis celebrates 100 years of preparing young people to study at the world’s leading universities.
