Working Adults

First-year Students

Jump start.

Yours is a life in progress. You might be set, on track, and gaining momentum. But are you going where you want to go? With Mercer’s program for working adults, you can add school to your schedule without getting derailed.

Here’s what you’ll need to send to get started:

  • A completed Mercer Evening and Weekend Undergraduate Application for Admission - apply online or print an application.
  • A $25 non-refundable application fee—check or money order made payable to Mercer University. 
  • An official copy of high school or GED transcript.*
  • Official SAT/ACT scores* (only required for applicants who graduated from high school or GED recipients who would have graduated high school within the last three years).

*Official documents must be received in a sealed envelope directly from the institution or testing agency.

All documents may be delivered to your selected location or mailed directly:
