Inspired by our Augustinian Catholic heritage, you’ll be empowered to make a difference in your community and out in the world.

Your Merrimack experience is 100% personalized, but you’ll never go at it alone. You’ll be mentored by our distinguished faculty members who are experts in their fields and devoted to your success. They take a deep interest in your studies and will help you bring learning to life.
Career focused
Truth be told, an education is only as good as where it can take you. That’s why our in-demand academic programs are strategically designed to help you build the skills and knowledge that today’s employers want.
Success driven
Let’s face it: anyone can achieve success once. Sustaining it takes hard work and the right mix of people and resources. At Merrimack, we think we’ve got the secret sauce. From your first day at Merrimack until graduation, our wraparound academic and career support services will set you up for achievable, repeatable, measurable success.
Affordable
The cost to attend Merrimack may surprise you (in a good way).

Our caring, tight-knit campus community will help make your college years some of the best of your life. And with 60+ student and service organizations and 40+ sports, you’ll find endless ways to get involved and find your place.
Values that last a lifetime
Founded by the Order of St. Augustine in 1947, Merrimack continues to uphold the Augustinian Catholic values of social justice, scholarship, and service. Merrimack is committed to providing students with opportunities to develop intellectually, spiritually, socially, and ethically.
Mack Gives Back is an annual service tradition that commemorates both our Augustinian heritage and Veterans Day by giving the Merrimack community the opportunity to honor those who serve by serving others. Hundreds of students, faculty, staff, and alumni volunteers cover locations throughout the Merrimack Valley and Boston, working tirelessly to perform hours of much-needed community service.
