  • I am so excited about my acceptance to Mercy! How do I register for next year?

    We are so happy to have you as part of our Class of 2029!

    To register, simply log into your account that you created when filling out your application, and fill out the required registration forms. You will also need to create an account with our tuition management system, FACTS, and submit your registration fee and deposit.

  • I have a question about my financial package. Who should I speak to?

    Questions about financial packages can be addressed by contacting our Finance Office at 410.433.8880 x 223.

  • What is the Mercy uniform and where can I purchase it?

    The Mercy uniform is a white button-down shirt, plaid kilt, and a red blazer for formal occasions. Students may choose from a variety of uniform sweaters during colder weather, and may wear knee- or ankle-length socks in white or black, or opaque black tights. Shoes are an all-black buck.

    Uniforms are available at FlynnO’Hara in Parkville, and shoes may be purchased at many locations, though we recommend Van Dyke and Bacon on Northern Parkway, just down the road from Mercy.

    For more information about the Mercy uniform, check out this document!
