Takes Other Steps to Keep Tuition Affordable for Students
In response to the economic challenges facing its students and the region as a whole, Mercy College of Northwest Ohio announced that it has frozen tuition for the 2008/2009 academic year.
This is the first time in the school’s history that tuition has been frozen. “As a mission based educator, we believed it was the right thing for us to do in this economic climate,” said John Hayward, President of Mercy College of Northwest Ohio. “We believe it reflects our overall philosophy of education, which is to put the student and their future first.”
In addition, tuition for the core prerequisite courses of Algebra, Biology, and Chemistry will be reduced to $99 per credit hour and scholarships for first-time college students are being offered. “Taken together, these efforts reflect a strong commitment to providing access to higher education for people in Northwest Ohio, and make Mercy College even more affordable to both new and returning students” says Shelly McCoy Grissom, Associate Dean of Students for Enrollment Services.

Mercy College of NW Ohio is happy to announce that students may now pay their bills online at the Mercy College website through the secure Empower Me link. https://my.mcnwo.mercycollege.edu
It has come to our attention that students are applying for financial aid at a web site that is charging $79.99 to submit their FAFSA. Please remember that your FAFSA is a FREE APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL STUDENT AID. The correct web site is www.fafsa.ed.gov. Mercy College also has a link on the financial aid page. If you are unsure if you are at the correct web site, please contact the Financial Aid Office at (419) 251-1721 or (419) 251-1598.
Congratulations on the upcoming completion of your program. Before you graduate, federal regulations require you to complete Stafford Loan Exit Counseling, even if you plan to continue on with your education after graduation. By now, you should have received in the mail information from the Financial Aid office that includes a printout of the loans you borrowed while attending Mercy College.
Effective 4/3/2007 - Toledo Campus students can now request FINANCIAL AID as a payment option (if eligible) when you order books online.

Eligible students will no longer need to come to the Financial Aid office to fill out a paper book voucher form. Any questions, please contact the Financial Aid office at (419) 251-1721, (419) 251-1598 or financialaid@mercycollege.edu. Thank you!

However, you will not receive a failure message for 24-36 hours after you send the email, so you will not know about it.
