Who Comes to Merrimack?

The students who attend Merrimack College are diverse individuals with varied interests, while sharing some common traits. They tend to be focused and ambitious, friendly and down-to-earth, well-grounded, and interested in contributing to society. Some are creative and untraditional; others are academic and practical. Nearly all of them want to find ways in which they can serve others and give back.

In fact, they generally want to be engaged and involved — in their studies, their pursuit of a career, and their community. Many of them want to have a positive impact on the world, and most are eager to get started. They already have their eyes on the future.
