College and Career Prep
Career and College Prep
At Marian University Preparatory School (MU Prep), students are motivated to discover their passion.
"It's one thing to be aware of your options and watch them from afar. It's another thing when you have the space to apply and practice your skills in real-life experiences. That is learning as you live, and that is what we do at Marian University Preparatory School." –Dr. Elisha Schlabach, Head of School
