About Misericordia University Admissions Department

Misericordia University is a private, Catholic, liberal arts institution in Dallas, Pennsylvania established in the tradition of the Sisters of Mercy. Misericordia prepares students in the tenants of Mercy, Service, Justice, and Hospitality, ready to emerge into a challenging society as ethical and moral servant leaders. Our students lead lives of personal consequences guided by enduring values that forge a common bond across generations of alumni. Through Misericordia's rich heritage and an emphasis on service learning, and volunteerism, we cultivate within each student a lifelong commitment to improve the lives of others. The work we do as educators can be measured by the beneficial impact our students have during their careers and personal lives. Misericordia University fosters a welcoming environment where inclusion is value. Opportunities for student success and support are prioritized and engrained in our personal interactions, structured curriculum, programs, and activities. We empower community of engagement and compassion where collaboration, civility, and interpersonal skills are a priority. We prepare students to achieve their very best academically, athletically, socially, and professionally. The distinctive atmosphere at the university focuses on challenging academic experiences, personal attention from faculty and staff, and career preparation through academic excellence, experiential learning and co-curricular activity. Evidenced by outstanding persistence, graduation and job placement rates, and admissions to graduate programs, the university's range of opportunities for career exploration, service learning, and personal growth, including its distinctive Guaranteed Placement Program, provides students with unparalleled preparation as they embark upon careers and lives of consequence. The Guaranteed Placement Program is a promise that, within six months of graduation, students will have a position in the career of their choice or be enrolled in graduate school, or the university will provide a paid internship in the student's field of study. The university provides a progressive student-focused environment fostered by its 125 full-time faculty. This group of distinguished professors is dedicated to providing excellence in education. In fact, 78 percent of the school's faculty hold a Ph.D. or other terminal degree. Students can choose from 38 degree programs in three Academic Colleges: Arts and Sciences; Health Sciences and Education; and Business. Misericordia has offered athletics programs, beginning with intramural sports, since 1932. Students can choose from 25 women's and men's varsity sports, including tennis, football, lacrosse and track and field. As a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III school, the Misericordia University Cougars compete in the Middle Atlantic Conference / MAC Freedom.
