Selecting a college or university will be one of the most important decisions you will ever make. You have probably heard that statement a lot lately - from family, friends, teachers, and now the many brochures that fill your mailbox. And they are right.
In making such a critical decision, it only stands to reason that you will want to learn as much as possible about the schools you are considering. After a while, the college brochures and websites may seem to blend together. So, what is your best strategy in making the right choice? At Mercer University, we believe it is the campus visit.
Campus visits at Mercer are available Monday through Friday throughout the year. Come explore one of the most beautiful campuses in North America (as recognized by The Princeton Review).
Spring 2013 Tour Schedule:
Monday through Friday: 10:00 a.m. & 1:00 p.m.
Select Saturdays throughout the academic year: 10:00 a.m.
