Yes, the Mercy University follows an “test-optional” policy for first-time freshman students, giving them the flexibility to not submit major test scores such as SAT or ACT, & only be evaluated on the basis of their high-school GPA.

Additional documents like letters of recommendation or an essay are also considered by the university's admissions team.

International students, however, must submit language proficiency test scores as part of their applications.
