Adjustments are different for everyone, especially in college and especially as a transfer student. Merrimack has many support systems to help you adjust to your new lifestyle. Some of the support systems include Hamel Health, The Counseling Center, the Academic Success Center, and Resident and Commuter Advisors.
Getting to know your peers and the orientation staff is a great way to start connecting with different student organizations and clubs! The Office of Student Involvement also holds an involvement fair during the first couple weeks of the semester which is a great place to learn about what Merrimack has to offer.Â
Merrimack College prides itself on not being a suitcase school. Most students stay at Merrimack through the weekends and the Office of Student Involvement runs at least one program every weekend.Â
All commuter students are guaranteed on-campus parking. The Student Vehicle Registration Form is in MyMack> Quick Links. Resident students are welcome to complete the Student Vehicle Registration Application. However, parking spaces are not guaranteed and will be prioritized based on class year, students with approved accommodations from the Accessibility Services Office, and students with confirmed off-campus experiential-education placements. As a general rule, freshmen and sophomore resident students should not expect to have a vehicle on campus, and opportunities for juniors will be limited.Â
You will receive your MackCard when you arrive on campus for Orientation. Â
To get your credit transfer details, visit your degree audit on myMack and schedule an appointment with your advisor to review these details. Every student at Merrimack is given an academic advisor to help with questions like this. You can also find your advisor’s name under student info on myMack.
