We know how hard it can be to keep track of so many different schools and their application requirements, deadlines, academic offerings and more. To help, we’ve gathered everything you need to know about Merrimack on one page to keep you updated and informed quickly and easily.
Rolling Admission:Â In addition to our early decision and early action deadlines, we have implemented rolling admission to allow more time and flexibility in the application process.
Test Scores Not Required:Â We do not use test scores in our application review process. Instead, we look closely at transcripts, GPA and other application documents to evaluate college readiness and fit.
*Please Note: Due to the direct-entry nature of our nursing program, we require two letters of recommendation for all nursing applicants; one from the school counselor and one from a teacher (preferably math or science). All other majors only require one letter of recommendation.Â
Reminder: Test scores are not required for fall 2024 applicants, and will not be considered during the review process. This includes nursing applicants.
