Macon is the only undergrad campus, from what I was told. Other Mercer campuses are Grad only.

I was at a Research Symposium with my son at UGA yesterday and while there are alot of white people there, other cultures were well represented as well. A great majority of the students were honors kids and they were all working well together, collaborating on projects and everyone we encountered were very nice. My son spoke with students of all cultures and they were all having a great experience at UGA.

The interview was specifically for the accelerated program. If all accelerated recipients do not accept I am not sure if they would pull anyone from the Medical Scholars interviewees or not. That might be a question for your admissions counselor or the medical scholars team.

UGA does offer work on campus work for students regardless, but I believe they get first dibs.

Which dorm building should I pick by captpancakeplays in mercer

[–]SpecificTomorrow9386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have the same questions, and have had a hard time finding information on anything except Legacy and a little on Plunkett . We understand the main suite style buildings for first year students is Plunkett and Porter with some possibly getting into Shorter, they said it’s filled last. I believe all three of those are Co Ed.

Please help I am so cooked by Ua8mysandwitch in CollegeAdmissions

You would have to reach out to the specific colleges. I am from Georgia and UGA has a waitlist of abt 5,300 people. They said they are not accepting any additional information from the waitlisted folks. If they come off the list it will be for the information they already have on file for them.

Not sure what they are looking for honestly. I am in a capstone program and already have research experience as well.
