Email: pinel.s@gmercyu.edu

Hello! I'm Stephanie Pinel and I’m the Director of Undergraduate Admissions here at GMercyU! I am here to answer any and all questions and give you a glimpse into what makes GMercyU such a special place!

Admissions Tip: Visit the universities and colleges you’re interested in twice— maybe try once when the weather is gorgeous and once when the weather isn’t so great. If you love the school both times, that’s a good sign that it’s where you’re meant to be!

Admissions Tip:  Don't forget about scholarships! There's probably one out there for you. No matter how small, every little bit helps. You have to remember books are probably going to be required and an important cost of your college life — spending an hour of your life writing an essay to earn a $500 scholarship is a simple and easy way to potentially pay for them!
