Best advice you have for incoming students?

I chose Mercer because...
Mercer was my first choice because of the intimate setting and outreach. It was an extreme contrast to my community college which didn't have campus life. I also appreciate how much closer it is to my home.
What is your favorite memory at Mercer so far?
My favorite Mercer memory is the day I got accepted to the TRIO program called Minority Mentor/ Opportunity Scholars. I spent a whole week going to different sites in Macon and Atlanta, meeting friends, and connecting with faculty.
