Volunteer

The Misericordia Proud Referral is a scholarship award of $500 a year, renewable for up to four years (*applicable to full-time undergraduate degrees only upon acceptance). Alumni can help students save as much as $2,000 during the course of their education at Misericordia.

Recommend your prospective student complete an application for admission to Misericordia University. On the application, there is a question that asks, “Were you encouraged to apply by a Misericordia alumna/us?”, the student must then provide your name on their application. Upon admission and enrollment, the student will receive notification of their Misericordia Proud Referral award.

For more information, email alumni@misericordia.edu

*Exclusions: Misericordia alumni employees may not be listed on the application for admission.

Each year, our alumni volunteers help us host a fun and successful Homecoming and Reunion Weekend. Volunteers offer guidance and organization for the event and write letters to classmates to drive attendance and class support.

To learn more about becoming a volunteer for your class reunion, contact alumni@misericordia.edu or call 570-674-6248.

See what our Associates have been up to. Mercy Associates with the Mid-Atlantic Community are a diverse group of men and women who have been called to witness to Mercy and to share the values and traditions of Catherine McAuley, Sisters of Mercy founder.

Although committed to lay life, they support and expand the life and works of Mercy in ways appropriate to their gifts, talents and lifestyles. Click here for more information on the mission of Mercy Associates.

Mercy Associates meet all over the United States. The opportunity closest to the MU campus is at the Mercy Center. The associate orientation takes place once a month, for 8 sessions. To become a Mercy Associate please contact Sally Barnes at sbarnes@mercymidatlantic.org
