In addition, the University welcomed its largest first-year student class since 1990 when the University was formed by the merger of Mercy College of Detroit and University of Detroit. In total, 651 new freshmen joined the University community. Also, the University will continue its Titan Edge program, which provides a Â鶹ÃÛÌÒAV education tuition free to high-achieving students who are eligible for the maximum Federal Pell Grant and the full Michigan Achievement Scholarship.
