Residential Life
The residential houses and halls at Marianapolis are the foundations of a diverse and global residential community unified by our work to grow, play, and live through Marianapolis’ mission. Students learn and grow, through programs and activities, as well as the cultural exchanges inherent in living together in a tight knit house or hall, fostering lifelong connections.
Each and every boarding student at Marianapolis is a valued member of the residential community.
Information for Boarding Students
Boarding Options
7 Day Boarding
The 7 Day Boarding option allows residential students to remain on campus throughout the academic year and return home during breaks when the houses and halls are closed.
5 Day Boarding
Marianapolis launched our 5 Day Boarding Program in August 2020! This offering is meant to provide students from the New England area with the opportunity to be immersed in the boarding side of our community during the week while enabling them to return home to family and friends on the weekends. Students will spend Sunday night through Friday afternoon living on campus as a boarding student in one of our residential dorms. If a student has a Marianapolis obligation, such as a game or performance, on a Saturday, they are permitted to stay on campus until that commitment is over. They will experience all that our community has to offer while building their independence and learning to live away from home!
International Student Resources
Ms. Jackson, in her International Student Advisor role, works with every international student to ensure they are positioned strongly to have the most rewarding experiences possible academically and socially.
Mrs. Drew, Academic Resources Advisor & School Counselor, is available and meets with our international students in support of their transition to school and residential life, and their overall wellness.
English Language Department courses, in conjunction with the application of English academically and socially, help international students develop, refine, and perfect their ability to communicate with greater proficiency.
GLO, which stands for Global Leadership Outreach, are international student leaders who have explore American culture while taking pride in, celebrating, and sharing their own cultural identities.
Cultural diversity is celebrated by hosting 2-4 events each month, such as International Day, German Unity Day, Mexican Independence Day, Italy’s Festa della Liberazione, Lunar New Year, and Chuseok.
House and Hall Parents aim to foster a nurturing environment for boarding students to live and learn on campus. As international students navigate life immersed in a new culture, our residential staff prioritize the acclimation process through hands-on, unforgettable, quintessentially “American” experiences. Whether it’s carving pumpkins, baking Christmas cookies, or singing karaoke, dorm faculty make our residence halls an integral part of their lives - and their families.
Residential Assistants are upperclassmen who serve as peer counselors, advocates, advisors, and, most importantly, role models who cultivate positive relationships in the houses and halls. These peers help create a climate which is conducive to academic, social, athletic, and extracurricular achievement in the houses and halls, as well as throughout the entire school. RAs help to plan and facilitate events that develop and foster community like barbecues and movie nights.
Experiential Learning
The Experiential Learning program, or EL, is an exciting opportunity for students to continue learning outside of the classroom. Throughout the year, students have the ability to participate in unique activities that take them off campus during the weekend and around the New England region. For international students, they experience regional culture while continuing to apply the English language in academic, cultural, interactive, and many other ways.
LEAP Week (Live. Experience. Advance. Prepare.)
LEAP Week is a one-week mini-term course requirement in May during which groups of students and faculty explore a specific topic, project, or adventure. Course offerings typically focus on specialized skills, the arts, community service, scientific field studies, cultural immersion experiences, or outdoor challenges. The program takes students out of the classroom and into broader areas of hands-on exploration, in the company of teachers who model the excitement and joy of lifelong learning.
