What Students Are Saying

Mercyhurst College is a trimester school. So the work load is more than it is at a semester school. The work load may be a lot but the education is well worth it.
Melinda from Erie, PA
the difficulty of classes ranges depending upon major, but mercyhurst's trimester system keeps students on topic and busy. by focusing on less classes, for a shorter period of time, students must develop strong study habits.
Jonna from Grove City, PA
The academics you can say are hard but with the help you will be receiving it wont be a problem.
