The College of Mount Saint Vincent aims to increase its full-time undergraduate student population to 2,100 by 2025. The College of Mount Saint Vincent has found a partner in Sterling National Bank, balancing their stead- fastness and commitment to tradition with Sterling’s progressive financial solutions and cutting-edge banking technology. It all started when Mount Saint Vincent needed a financing solution that would be unique in the college sector. Dr. Flynn says, “Sterling was happy to work with us, understand our rationale, and serve our needs” instead of suggesting a more typical solu tion. By working with Sterling, Mount Saint Vincent was able to save over two million dollars, helping the college grow to the next level. According to Dr. Flynn, “Sterling’s creativity puts us in a positive position.” As part of their continued growth plan, the College is expanding graduate and professional studies with high- quality programs, including an M.B.A. program focusing on health care management, international business, and not-for-profit management. The College plans also to further develop other programs in nursing, international development, and teacher education.
