“Our mission is to serve those students who are interested in learning and growing and developing and I’m definitely a part of that and I’m one of the successes of that mission.”

Interested in Working as a PACT Mentor?
The PACT program is Mercy College’s signature program for ensuring student success from day one through graduation. It is a personalized mentoring program where PACT (Personalized Achievement Contract) personnel work 1:1 with students throughout college, helping them through the entire college experience – from choosing classes to balancing work/life/school through to career launch.
PACT turns the old model of advising on its head. Instead of one person for financial aid, another for academics, PACT mentors are trained to do it all. It is a hugely rewarding career, and our students are immensely grateful.
