University of Detroit Mercy

As the only Jesuit and Mercy university in the country, we take pride in our foundational values of rigorous learning and world service. We are the largest, most comprehensive Catholic university in Michigan, offering more than 100 academic degrees and programs including a law school and dental school, study abroad programs, community service projects, research opportunities and internships at major organizations in Detroit and beyond.  

At Detroit Mercy, we believe in a well-rounded college experience, which is why we choose to complement our strong academics with enriching campus life. We offer 17 Division I athletic teams, a thriving Greek life, and more than 70 student clubs and organizations to choose from. Because UDM is located in the heart of Detroit, students have access to an ignited social scene.
