I did my graduate degree at Mercer University a few years back. I finished it in just under three…read moreyears while working full-time. I sometimes wonder how I managed to get to the finish line without dying trying to balance work, school, and life. I'm so glad that I made it through! My program was unique, as lectures were entirely online, through text chats, video conferences, and lots of communication through e-mail. It was and continues to be a program that is not offered at any Canadian university. I was fortunate to get awarded a bursary during my time at Mercer University. It helped me out immensely. The university has decent tuition payment plans, which this Canadian appreciated, especially when the exchange rate was horrible! Throughout my time as a graduate student, I worked closely with my professors. We often talked over the phone and through e-mails when I needed advice and help. They truly wanted every student to succeed. There were various conferences where I would meet my peers and professors, so it didn't seem like I was studying remotely. I made the trip on campus for my graduation. I am glad that I did. The campus is gorgeous. Two of my professors gave my friend and me a tour, including their offices and lecture halls at the School of Engineering, where we ultimately got our degrees. The only negative I can think of was the mishap getting my name on the graduation list. The woman that I dealt with was unpleasant. Here's hoping that she has fixed her attitude and is a better person these days! To date, I am still close friends with my professors and peers. Last summer, two of my professors-turned-friends and a peer were in town for a conference. We met up for dinner and it was wonderful catching up with them. I wouldn't have forged strong friendships had it not been for Mercer University and the program that I graduated from. (171)

This school gives little regard to proper procedures but focuses on the number of students they have to fill the seats! This school is a small piece of feces that should be wiped away from being a accredited school! Joanna Binns and Dr. Fowler authorized a cop to bring me two forms of paperwork to sign, I felt that this was a form of intimidation and harassment for requesting written paperwork! The forms of paperwork were not a high priority but yet a paper to sign for my child's suspension that was served in December. Things you will not experience at this institution: 1. Never met all my child's teachers physically only through zoom or via telephone 2. No physical correspondence only verbal 3. No attending child's functions or celebration, Cirrus only provides parents a video of the celebration. 4.
