Transferring from Westchester Community College

Mercy College and Westchester Community College share a commitment to the affordability of higher education and strive to have their graduates succeed post-graduation. Both institutions have a diverse community of students, staff and faculty united to drive change in the world through the power of education.

Are you a WCC student looking to transfer and continue your education? We would love to welcome you to Mercy College. We have many WCC transfers on all three of our campuses, in Westchester, the Bronx and Manhattan.  

You'll get the personal attention you need. With our personal mentors, dedicated faculty advisers and monthly professional development activities, we will be there every step of the way. 

We know how important it is to have your credits transfer over and be applied toward your specific program. We’ve created Transfer Credit Max so you can get a customized idea at how we can apply your credits and help you to see how quickly you can finish your degree at Mercy.

Transferring can be a confusing process. We're here to help you see whether your credits may transfer and what steps you need to take.

Scholarships and grants can be life-changing for many of our students and as a result many individuals, friends, alumni of the College, academic, professional, fraternal and business organizations and foundations have created their own scholarships to recognize and help you. 

All incoming transfer students are automatically reviewed for merit-based scholarships based on their incoming academic criteria.

Mercy's career team is here to help you explore careers that are right for you, prep for the big interview, search for internships and jobs, network with employers, and launch your career. They are working with our academic departments to incorporate career readiness right into the curriculum. Our students attend career events, have access to resources and tools, and can meet one-on-one with their career coach.
