Who We Are

Our mission is the preservation and development of the core Catholic identity and mission of Mercy higher education in accord with the spirit, mission, and heritage of the Sisters of Mercy.

About Us & Our Mission

The Mercy Way

The Sisters of Mercy - the largest community of religious women in the Roman Catholic Church - was founded in Dublin, Ireland in 1831 by Mother Catherine McAuley.

The Mercy colleges and universities of today still look to her as they provide a treasured ministry of Mercy.
