Since our founding by the Sisters of Mercy in 1934, we have grown to a community of more than 2,700 undergrad and grad students who proudly carry forward our mission in their personal and professional lives. Fully accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education, we are committed to fueling the imagination and encouraging the academic ambitions of our bright and curious students.
