This school is one of the poorest academic institutions I have ever heard of, especially the American Sign Language program. The ASL program is understaffed, and the two teachers collude to discriminate against students they don't like. Confidential student feedback is identified and the comments used on the "anonymous" forms are held against the student. There is back-stabbing and gossip. Perhaps this would be more easy to overlook if the program actually provided a good education. It does not, at least in the ASL program. You will find it hard to get an internship because Mount students have a reputation of not being prepared. The program teaches you to pass the NIC certification, but does not teach you to actually interpret well. Grades are simply fabricated out of thin air—no rubrics, no assignments handed back, just a letter on your transcript. Faculty have also been known to breach ethical and confidentiality codes, and the administration is in general unsympathetic to student concerns, siding with the faculty rather than advocating for the students.

Cresson is a tiny town. There's not much to do here at all. But that's not the main reason you shouldn't attend.

Maintenance is, as others have said, notoriously bad. The magnetic door locks for getting into the dorms break every other week. Many areas of campus show signs of disrepair. This isn't to say that there aren't some beautiful areas on campus.

Parking is plentiful, but resident parking can be a long way from the dorms. The parking policies are very particular and you will be ticketed if you violate them.

Despite their emphasis on Mercy values, this school fails to provide a consistent or high-quality education. It is utterly broken, from the cold and inaccessible administration to the arrogant and manipulative faculty.
