Welcome to our Savannah campus.

In 2008, Mercer University School of Medicine expanded its Savannah site to a full four-year campus to support the School’s mission of preparing physicians for service in Georgia’s rural and underserved areas.

Located on the campus of Memorial Health University Medical Center, the Savannah campus provides medical students with convenient access to both academic and clinical training in one location. At the heart of the building, a light-filled atrium with open seating, natural materials, and architectural details offers a welcoming space to study, connect, or take a break

Savannah life

Savannah, Georgia’s oldest city, blends historic charm with modern appeal. Tree-lined streets shaded by Spanish moss lined with 18th- and 19th-century architecture. The downtown area offers a mix of local shops, galleries, and restaurants, while River Street draws visitors with its waterfront views, sweets, and nightlife. Just a short drive away, Tybee Island provides a relaxing beach escape.
