Information for Parents and Families
At Mercer, we understand that choosing a college is often a family decision, so we want to make sure you stay as informed as your student.

Parent and Family Q&A Webinar
Join us online for a webinar specific for parents and families to learn more about your student's next steps in the admissions and enrollment process. Ask questions and learn about upcoming deadlines and what to expect as your student prepares to join Mercer's newest incoming class.

Visit Campus
Websites and brochures never tell the whole story. You can browse photos online, but it's the undeniable, energizing spirit of Bear Territory that captivates you when you visit in person.

Your Point of Contact
Mercer's admissions team is dedicated to guiding you and your student through every step of the admissions process. Our counselors are here to answer your questions, provide you with information about visiting campus, help you navigate the financial aid process, and more.
