UDM BUSINESS SCHOOL COURSE OPPORTUNITY FOR JUNIORS & SENIORS

This is a reminder of the 12/6 communication in regard to an upcoming dual enrollment opportunity with University of Detroit Mercy College of Business Administration. We are excited about this partnership and pleased to offer the UDM Business Leaders Accelerated Start (BLAST) program to Mercy Juniors and Seniors beginning in January 2024.

Attention Juniors & Seniors

Do you plan to pursue Business in college? If yes, this opportunity might be for you. 

Mercy is working in partnership with the University of Detroit Mercy's Business School to provide Mercy Juniors* and Seniors* a dual enrollment opportunity in the BLAST program (Business Leaders Accelerated Start) beginning in January 2024. *High school seniors need a 3.25 GPA; juniors need a 3.50 GPA.

Not only are the classes offered for FREE, but enrollment also grants you access to an academic advisor, to the Executive-In-Residence which provides summer internships, and if five specified courses are taken, a Certificate in Business Administration before you graduate from high school.

UDM's Business School is nationally ranked by US News and World Report and has been accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) for more than 70 years which makes the courses transferable to any AACSB accredited business school in the world. ALL COURSES ARE FREE TO MERCY STUDENTS!
