College of Liberal Arts Pre-Nursing

Pre-Nursing

The pre-nursing program offered by Mercer's College of Liberal Arts in Macon is designed to help students complete the requirements for admission to Mercer University’s Georgia Baptist College of Nursing (GBCN), which is located on the Atlanta campus.

Pre-nursing students should note that the pre-nursing program (PNU) is not a major offered by Mercer University, and there is no degree or certification earned for successful completion of the curriculum. However, completion of the Mercer pre-nursing curriculum followed by successful completion of the nursing program at the GBCN leads to the degree Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). Specific information about Mercer's pre-nursing track can be found in the Student Handbook for the Pre-Nursing Track (MU Pre-Nursing Handbook).

Students may also prepare for nursing school at Mercer's College of Continuing and Professional Studies, which offers classes at many of Mercer's satellite campuses around Georgia.

Students should visit the GBCN Admissions website
