The
Leadership Academy at Mercy College is geared towards students who have a
passion for business and demonstrated leadership and public speaking skills.
We invite you to nominate up to five (5) of your students to apply
to our Summer Leadership Academy. Last year we received over 1,000 nominations
from around the country from which we accepted 200 students to attend.
The weeklong Academy is held at our Westchester campus on the
Hudson River and students visit our Manhattan campus near Times Square. Students
learn leadership lessons from leaders at top global companies, match a
personality assessment to potential careers, and participate in team-building
activities.
In addition, students visit Fortune 500 companies.
Past visits have included Microsoft/LinkedIn, Disney/ESPN, PWC, and MTV, among
others.
There is no charge for tuition and students stay in the
dorm for free. Students simply need to provide their own transportation
to and from campus, as well as a check in the amount of $250 for food.
CRITERIA:
·
current juniors
(rising seniors) with a passion for business
·
cumulative, weighted, GPA above 90 (3.5 on 4.0 scale, 4.0 on
5.0 scale)
·
demonstrated leadership activities

We
are accepting students on a rolling basis. As spots are limited, we
encourage students to apply at their earliest convenience.
