I've had some incredible teachers and mentors with so much experience, and I’m very much aligned with them on delivering a certain type of care that’s important to me. GMercyU was a good fit for me.”

“From the moment I arrived, I felt a genuine sense of belonging. The welcoming atmosphere made it clear that this was a place where I could thrive, both personally and academically. My favorite part about Gwynedd Mercy University is the accessibility of the professors and staff, as well as the meaningful relationships that develop with them. They took the time to get to know who I am and understand my capabilities. If I had any questions or needed to speak with them, I was always able to reach out without any difficulty"

Health Professions Program Reviews
"Most of the equipment in the [Exercise Science] lab is what you’d use as a future athletic trainer or strength and conditioning coach. Small changes in effort or setup can really change results, which I didn’t expect. It definitely made me realize how important attention to detail is when testing or training athletes."

"Words cannot describe how outstanding the Respiratory Care program is at GMercyU. It truly feels like a family and the passion our instructors have for the profession is what makes us as students so skilled, both in the classroom and in a clinical setting. I believe this program prepares you so well in the classroom that you walk into your first day at clinical feeling confident in your skills and the knowledge you carry."

It’s very hands-on, and you’re constantly developing skills like professional communication, content creation, and project management. Through scheduling interviews, collaborating with others, and producing real content, you learn how to build relationships, tell meaningful stories, and carry yourself with confidence in a professional setting."

"I transferred to GMercyU in the Spring of 2022. I chose GMercyU because of the small school size and the community that GMercyU has. On campus I have been involved in many ways. I am the Vice President for Education Outreach and a peer mentor for Integrated Studies. I have attended many conferences with the Mercy Center. I have also been an orientation leader and assistant for New Student Orientation."

"Every company needs professionals in finance, so being a finance major can open many opportunities. Don’t think it’s all about the stock market and numbers. The numbers tell a story, and it’s up to us to figure out what they’re telling us. The professors at Gwynedd really care for the students, and because of the small class sizes, it gives students a chance to bond with their professors. I’ve bonded with my professors and it led to internships, job opportunities, and job recommendations."
–Rebecca Joe ’20, Finance Graduate

Arts & Sciences Program Reviews
"The professors are the nicest people I have ever met and they genuinely want to see their students succeed past college." —Michael McKeehen '27, Biology Major
Posted Winter 2026
"The level of support here is unreal. The professors genuinely want you to succeed, and the small class sizes mean you’re not just a name on a roster. You’re a person with goals, struggles, and a story that matters. But what really sold me? The way the Mercy values are woven into everything we do. It’s one thing to talk about social justice; it’s another to actively live it out. I am proud to be a Mercy student."

"[As a transfer student], Dr. McEliece advocated for my transfer credits and mapped out an entire plan for my leftover coursework so that I could graduate on time, while also having room for classes that interest me. The Biology program has helped me to develop so many different useful skills. Gwynedd being a smaller university has also made it easy for me to develop close relationships with each of my professors."
—Emily Murphy '25, Biology Major

"I love this program, as it has given me a much deeper and more comprehensive view of this field that I don't believe I would've necessarily had at a bigger, non-service driven school."

"The Social Work program has taught me so much more about the career path I want to go on but also about myself, the people around me, and the environment. I have had such a great experience at GMercyU with my professors, making some great friends, and having great experiences."

"Transferring to GMercyU was one of the best decisions that I made for myself and my academic career. Before transferring, I was at Montgomery County Community College studying Human Services, not knowing what my next move was going to be, and then the pandemic hit. Gwynedd Mercy University was suggested to me by my counselor at Montco. Even though my first semester at Gwynedd was remote through Zoom, it was such a great experience right off the bat. I have learned so much during my two and half years here. It has really shaped me into the student that I am today."
