Mercer is pretty average to me. The food options aren’t great, buildings are so old and crusty, dorms are not good except you pay extra which you may not even get. When it comes to room selection and registration, you have to pray because there’s barely enough seats in a class and not every one gets equal chance at choosing a room. Otherwise, the small classrooms and the professors are really the best parts. Oh it’s not that diverse either. I’m an international African student and trust me when I say there’s barely diversity!
The online experience is second to none, and it is full of integrated scopes and practicalities. I particularly enjoy the easily navigated built up of the highlited inscriptions on their webpages. Moreover, students are allowed to have numerous one-on-one encounters with one another. Which is highly commendable. Even when lectures are over, the management of the school has ensured that all questions directed to the authorities concerned are replied as at when due, for smooth transitions of learning and academic growth. Due to all these new measures, I have made so much friends already, even though I we are yet to start the on-campus studies. I so much likke life at mercer university, especially the modus operandi of the laid down rules. It brings to mind the right way to approach a difficult situation. Especially for students who are shy and hardly reaching out for answers. They are always carried along.
