The University of Mary has announced plans for a major expansion project to meet with growing demands from increasing enrollment. The plans include new student housing, a new student campus center, and renovation of existing facilities. The University is raising funds to the tune of $40 million for the improvements.

Opened as Mary College in 1947, the college began offering 2-year programs in 1955 and 4-year programs in 1959. The campus moved to its current location in 1968 and officially achieved university status in 1986, at which time it also began offering Master-level degrees.
