No responses

What impressed you positively?

The admissions office/staff, students, and the professor were all very welcoming, excited about the school, and focusing on you. They seem to want to make sure you make the best decision for you.

What impressed you negatively?

The location because of the traffic

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Mingle with other applicants, presentation, tour, talk with a group of Mercer staff/students (think networking atmosphere very laid back), 1 on 1 with student interveiw, and 1 on 1 with faculty interview.

What are your general comments?

Very impressive from start to finish! I was accepted and painfully had to turn it down as another school provided a different type of experience I wanted out of my pharmD program. However, I would reccomend Mercer to everyone who wants to live in the city!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

This process from applying to acceptance was top notch. They layed out the process in detail and stuck to that process. The admissions office did a great job marketing the school! The student representatives did a great job of answering questions openly and honestly.
