Editing Tarrytown, New York (section)

==Education==
Tarrytown was home to [[Marymount College, Tarrytown|Marymount College]], an independent [[women's college]] established in 1907. Amid financial struggle, Marymount was taken over by [[Fordham University]] in 2002, but the effort was unsuccessful: the last graduates of "Marymount College of Fordham University" received diplomas in 2007. The historic hilltop campus was sold to the Swiss firm [[EF Education First|EF]] and became a branch of its foreign exchange secondary school, the [[Education First EF International Academy|EF International Academy]].<ref>{{Cite news |last=Brenner |first=Elsa |date=February 17, 2008|title=Marymount Being Sold; Village to Gain Taxes |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/17/nyregion/nyregionspecial2/17collegewe.html |newspaper=The New York Times |location=New York |access-date=July 17, 2014 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ef.edu/academy/about-ef-academy/ |title=About EF Academy |year=2014 |work=Ef.edu |publisher=EF Education First |access-date=July 17, 2014 }}</ref>
