St. Mary's as a college, with all due respect, is not a serious college. It's non-accredited, and just not serious at all as a college. That's not to say there isn't any learning taking place there, but at best it could be seen as a sort of community college for local SSPX people, or an excuse to move to St. Mary's. People who send their children their are doing it out of enthusiasm for the SSPX, not out of practicality.
