Career Outcomes
College Is One of the Best Investments You'll Make in Your Life.
College graduates earn on average $1 million dollars more over a lifetime than high school graduates.* At GMercyU, we prepare students for their next step — 96% of recent GMercyU graduates were employed or in graduate school within 6 months of graduation, according to Class of 2024 survey respondents.

At GMercyU, 100% of first-time students participate in real-world experiences, like Toni (in the video), an Education major who's been in elementary school classrooms since her first semester, so she can really learn what it'll take to become an amazing teacher.
Real-world experiences such as internships, service, clinicals, research, or student-teaching give GMercyU students the skills and connections employers look for when making hiring decisions.
