Mount
Mercy College has become a leading choice for non-traditional
adult students. Nearly 40 percent of our students are over the
age of 25. If you are at least 23 years of age, with at least
three years of work experience, we invite you to take a closer
look at Advance@
Mount Mercy and Mount Mercy's other degree completion
programs for working adults.
Offering programs
in business, marketing and accounting, Advance@ Mount Mercy meets
the needs of the adult student. The course delivery format accelerates
courses into a five-, eight-, or 10-week block in which students
attend class one night per week for three or four hours. In-class
hours are replaced with a range of cooperative and individual
learning opportunities outside of the classroom to allow students
an opportunity to maintain the balance in their personal and professional
life while pursuing their bachelor’s degree.
Mount Mercy
also offers an accelerated degree completion program for RNs called
Nursing:
RN to BSN Completion. The program is tailored for working
RNs with three years of experience to earn a bachelor of science
in nursing. Health
Services Nursing Home Administration is designed to
prepare students for administrative careers in the expanding health
care field.
