My experience at MCHS was superb! I transferred 2 years worth of credits into my bachelors degree program and had little to no hassles at all. My academic advisor, Dr. Suzanne Crandall (has since retired), was always very helpful and knowledgeable and I will forever remember all of the positive experiences I had with each of my professors. In regards to the few negative reviews about MCHS, this school was not easy and definitely pushes you to your limits. It is challenging and not meant for those that give up easily. I personally loved the challenge and the fact that the curriculum was rigorous to prepare me for my career in healthcare. If it were easy, the value of the education would be severely diminished. If you're looking for an easier route, I would advise you to seek a for-profit college education. Feel free to contact me if you'd like any guidance about MCHS! - Lukas
I started out at DMACC but it was going to take too long to get into the program, so I went to Mercy. My teachers were much more involved with my learning and although it is a hard program, I did it! I still keep in touch with a couple of my teachers even though I live out of state now, and I had no problems finding a job. I recommend going here.
I agree with this school being a joke. A total waste of money. Made to feel like a pee on in clinicals and the teachers don't prepare you for tests. Then you are threatened with dismissal at every turn. A definite no no for moms trying to go through college. No support there whatsoever!
This school is only a third the size of my high school and somehow administrators and staff still cannot run it and keep things organized. I was told when transferring that 33 of my previously earned credits (only 1 year previous) would transfer to my new program at Mercy, but when I got here the registrar told me that only 6 credits would transfer. Her words were "Well, I just told you those other credits would transfer in case you got here and didn't like that program. They will transfer for any of the other programs." So I am now retaking every general education class (math, psych, sociology) because "these courses are more medically based here at Mercy." Really? Math is more medical? Okay. Secondly, I have been attending this school for almost a year now and just last week my advisor emails me welcoming me and asking if I needed any help scheduling my classes. Thanks. Safe to say this is my last semester at Mercy. I advise you do not attend this school. What a waste of money.
WORST SCHOOL EVER! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND PRECIOUS MONEY ON THIS JOKE OF A SCHOOL!
