Welcome to Georgian Court University, the
Mercy University of New Jersey. Please be prepared
to present ID at the Campus Safety Gatehouse. Note
that most campus roads are one way; please observe
the 15 mph speed limit. In case of emergency, there
are 19 emergency phones around the campus that will
instantly connect you to the Office of Campus Safety.
The Georgian Court University campus is a National
Historic Landmark and an arboretum. The property
was originally constructed in 1896 to serve as the
winter vacation estate of Gilded Age financier George
Jay Gould. Featuring British Georgian architecture, the
estate was named Georgian Court by the Goulds—a
name that stayed when the Sisters of Mercy purchased
the property from the Goulds in 1924. Many of
the buildings and grounds—such as the Mansion,
the Japanese Garden, the Sunken Garden, and the
Casino—are original and are maintained as much as
possible to preserve their historic heritage and beauty.
