Campus Life
Athletics
A lot of universities like to brag about their athletic programs. But few can really say that they demand the same commitment to academics as they expect in athletics. At Mercer University, we believe in the power of a sports program that promotes academic achievement as well as athletic skill. In fact, more than 60 percent of all student-athletes have earned conference all-academic honors.
But sports opportunities aren't just for student-athletes. With a variety of intramural sports offered throughout the year (and more than half of the student body participating) from basketball to flag football to ultimate Frisbee, there's an outlet for everyone. And through the University's Sport Club Program, students and staff with similar athletic interests can come together to participate in their favorite sports – recreationally or competitively. Examples include team sports, individual sports, aquatics, equestrian, martial arts.
