Application information

Find out about requirements, fees, and deadlines

First-year

You’re a first-year student if you’re applying right after high school, even with AP or dual enrollment credits, and you haven’t enrolled at another college yet. Mercy uses a holistic, SAT/ACT-optional review. To apply, send your application, final high school transcript and any college transcripts if available.

Transfer

You’re a transfer student if you’ve taken college classes after high school. Submit your application, official college transcript(s) and high school transcript if you’ve earned fewer than 12 college credits. Military students with a Joint Service Transcript also apply as transfers.

We believe every student deserves access to a high-quality education, regardless of financial circumstances.
