Why Support UDM

Gifts to the University of Detroit Mercy allow us to carry out our mission of providing a quality, student-centered education in the traditions of the Jesuits and Sisters of Mercy.

Small class sizes, courses taught by qualified faculty, an emphasis on hands-on learning and a commitment to nurturing leadership and service are just some of what makes a UDM education unique.

There has never been a better time to support UDM:

• We continue to be ranked in the top tier of the Midwestern master’s universities in the U.S. News &  World Report rankings.
• Our enrollment continues to increase. In fact, just last year alone registration for undergraduate students increased 10%, the largest increase in more than a decade.
• We have enhanced the student experience by completing a number of major capital initiatives including a multi-purpose track & field, a new tennis complex, new windows in Holden Hall and much more.

Your gift to UDM can help provide much needed scholarship assistance for our students, support programs that encourage our students to participate actively in leadership and service, and assist us continue our campus improvement that will ultimately enhance the student experience. 

We encourage you to help make great things happen by making your gift today.  Your gift can and will make a difference in the lives of our students.
