Atlanta-based Mercer University College of Pharmacy secured a deal with another Georgia university to promise priority applicant status for Mercer's PharmD program and cut one school year.
The agreement between Mercer and Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville allows prospective PharmD students to have priority status when applying for Mercer and use credits at Mercer to fill one year's worth of requirements for their bachelor's degree.
In April, Mercer made a similar contract with Lawrenceville-based Georgia Gwinnett College.
