Tutoring Programs

The Academic Resource Center provides tutoring for Mercer University students at the Macon campus and the Atlanta campus. We also provide tutoring for Mercer students at the Regional Academic Centers in Douglas County, Henry County, and Macon. All of our tutoring labs operate on a drop-in basis, so no appointments are necessary.
