I believe the education at Mercy College prepares students to walk into the nursing profession confidently.I received my second bachelor's in the Accelerated BSN program. I believe God brought me to Mercy College. Nursing is the field where I belong. I would definitely recommend Mercy College to others. The faculty and staff listen to students, hear them, and help as much as possible! I’m eager to begin my career as a nurse.
