Strongest point is the academic experience and critical thinking skills gained. College professors were wonderful and the academic workload is challenging and rigorous.

The small class sizes give the students personalized attention from top notch professors that would be more of a challenge at a larger school. If you are looking for a great academic experience in a small setting, this is the place. I found the social experience great as well, because you really get to know your class and there is plenty of fun things to do in Erie.

If you are looking for a large, big city party school, this isn't the place, however it was perfect for me. It's a small school, so the local employment ties are great, and the links to graduate schools, but it will be not as linked to big city employment on the coasts. I love the feeling I get from the small school community. Everyone is so welcoming and positive.

The professor's are super helpful and understanding with any circumstances you may come across. Classes aren't too long, and there's plenty of time between class to not stress about being late.

The campus is beautiful, and pretty small so it doesn't take forever to get to class. There's so much to do on campus, a lot of scheduled activities and a lot of space and places to just hang out with friends. Overall a really safe campus, I love every part of Mercyhurst!

Mercyhurst University is a smaller school with around 5,000 students currently enrolled. Out of those 5,000 more than 1,000 of students are internationals which adds a lot of diversity to the campus and invites different cultures to learn from each other. With a smaller sized campus the feeling of home is everywhere, among your friends, roommates, professors and even caffeteria staff. Mercyhurst University prides itself with it's beautiful campus which reminds every student of Hogwarts with just aa little bit more flowers! I love this school, and I'm grateful for all the people I've meet and all the knowledge and skills I've gained. I would recommend this school to anyone!
