"Graduate school is an expensive investment no matter where one chooses to go. I believe the quality of the education I received from Mercer is superior to many other Pharmacy schools, especially those in the area. The professional network I have created is one that I am sure will help me tremendously upon graduation. Of course, no school is perfect, and there have been hiccups along the way, however, I am very glad that I chose this school as the place I invest my time, money, and my future into."

"I really enjoy the intimate classroom size as I believe people can connect with each other in a more non-threatening environment. The class sizes aren't too large where people feel intimidated to speak in class or participate. The Cons to the program are that there aren't enough international students in the program to provide more diversity in the classrooms."

"My program is flexible and the classes are in a convenient location. I like the fact that classes are only two days a week, but I'm getting a quality education with superior faculty in the process. The con would be that because my classes are off-campus I don't always get the full benefits of a major university system."

"Professors go beyond their boundaries to see a student succeeding in his/her career. The school looks into building a student's soft skills apart from providing scientific knowledge.Suggestions from students are given a thought and brought to light.."

"I think the top pros are the faculty themselves. Each and every faculty member is fully accredited in their field and always have an open door for their students. The only cons I have are the campus is a little bit of drive in Atlanta for me, but I do not have a choice otherwise but to commute."

"The pros of my graduate program result in me being able to advance in my field of study through knowledge and networking while helping me to gain a better understanding of public health with a variety of programs. With a small department the professors are able to provide you with help individually a display the characteristics of helping students in need. The cons of my graduate program is the limit to financial aid provided as well as the lack of graduate assistant-ship programs. Due to this it makes furthering your education extremely difficult because you do not have the funds to pay for your education."
