Mount Mercy University sits on a hilltop campus in Cedar Rapids, Iowa's second-largest city. Founded in 1928 by the Sisters of Mercy, this Catholic liberal arts institution maintains its historical connection to the Sisters' mission while operating as an independent university. The campus comprises both traditional brick academic buildings and modern facilities, including newly constructed student housing and athletic complexes. Mount Mercy offers undergraduate and graduate programs with particular emphasis in nursing, business, and criminal justice, while maintaining a core liberal arts curriculum. Students have access to on-campus housing options in several residence halls, and the university competes in the Heart of America Athletic Conference as the Mustangs, primarily at the NAIA level.
