Marymount University takes pride in being located so close to the nation’s capital, Washington D.C. Our location allows students to easily venture out and explore the city, whether they want to go into Georgetown and grab a batch of cupcakes, or go walking around the monuments and memorials.<\/p>\n

The History department strongly encourages students to also visit the historical sites nearby! It is such an advantage to have D.C as our very own backyard. Below are a number of sites within a half hour of Marymount, ranging from the well-known to smaller gems.<\/p>\n
