    "The flexibility of the accounting program offered at Mercy College allowed me to complete my courses in my time frame. The courses offered contained substance, and I felt that my time was well spent. Assistance, when needed, was readily available through my professors or my advisor. As an older student with many years of work experience, I felt the program fine tuned my skills and gave me credibility in the work force. I highly recommend the program."
