SHADOW A MERCY GIRL 

For the 2025-26 school year, the shadow a student request form will be available in August and shadows begin for 8th grade students on September 22, 2025.

8th grade students are invited to spend one school day at Mercy during the first semester and 7th & 8th grade students are welcome second semester. Take a tour and see the amazing campus, attend classes, meet teachers and discover the amazing atmosphere at Mercy. A delicious lunch is provided and shadow guests leave with a special Mercy gift. At the end of the day, the student will meet with one of our Admissions staff. We look forward to meeting you!

We limit the number of shadows allowed each day and will do our best to accommodate your preferred date. We will email you with your official confirmation of your scheduled shadow date within three business days. If you aren't able to attend your confirmed day, please kindly notify the Admissions Office as soon as possible.

On your Shadow Day, you will be assigned a 9th or 10th grader as your personal tour guide. These assignments are made based on interest or, if you know a student at Mercy that is in 9th or 10th grade, you may request her by name. We will do our best to accommodate your request.
