Title
Mercy College: New York City. Undergraduate, Graduate and Online Courses
Description
Mercy College is a New York metropolitan area college of nearly 10,000 students from all walks of life studying at 5 campuses and a robust online campus. The main campus is in Dobbs Ferry, and branch campuses are in the Bronx, Manhattan, White Plains and Yorktown. In addition, Mercy operates access centers in several neighborhoods in Westchester County and New York City. The College was established in 1950 by the Sisters of Mercy to give the opportunity for higher education to young women who wouldn't otherwise have access to the advantages of a college education. In 1969, it became co-ed and nonsectarian, boldly reaching out to its surrounding communities. The mission - to make available the transformational power of a postsecondary education to people who would not otherwise have the opportunity -- has remained strong through all the growth and change of the last 56 years.
The faculty that makes this remarkable transformation possible most often describes itself as a "teaching faculty," dedicated to the scholarship of teaching. We have Fulbright Scholars and national authorities in their fields. Our faculty travel to all the campuses, so that we are able to maintain the quality of teaching, small classes and personal interaction that lead to student success.
Come and visit any one of our five campuses; talk to students and faculty, and find out for yourself how Mercy College is changing the face of higher education with its commitment to both access and excellence.
