About us

Marymount California University was established in 1968 as a two-year institution of higher education by the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary (RSHM). In 1975 the RSHM transferred responsibility for the University to a lay Board of Trustees. Today, MCU offers Associate’s, Bachelor’s and Graduate degree programs. The RSHM provides a legacy to the University, through which their charism and education tradition inspires the institution’s mission.
