#GMercyUGrad19
Saturday, May 11, 2019 was a big day for both Gwynedd Mercy
University and the Class of 2019. GMercyU’s Class of 2019 was the
University’s largest graduating class with more than 880 graduates
receiving their degrees in the 2018-2019 academic year. And for
the first time in the University’s history, both the undergraduate
and graduate Commencement Ceremonies were held off-campus at
the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center at Oaks.
The graduates were honored in the company of family, friends,
faculty, and staff, as they reflected on their achievements and
looked forward to their future successes. There were many smiles,
tears, and cheers as the Class of 2019 said farewell to Gwynedd
Mercy University and hello to their bright futures as Distinctive
Mercy Graduates.
