申请点评
- Campus Resources: It's a small school, but has a student counsel that do their best to make the campus environment more inviting.
- Campus Resources: I only took two classes this past fall, but the staff was very friendly and hepful and one of my teachers was awesome and the other needed to retire(simply said. ) he would give us quizzes that we could look up the answers to online, didnt really earn a whole lot in that class eiher. It was mostly powerpoints and seemingly pointless experiments. Nothing amazing or exciting to spark one's interest in science.
- My sociology class was very good, on the other hand. The teacher was funny and interactive and made us learn and study the material.
- Academic Experience: I have formed a good relationship in the classroom with my fellow MA students. I feel comftorable asking any of my classmates for help if I'm having a hard time understanding.
- Academic Experience: My registration process was a headache! I had to meet with so many different people and set up times to meet with them, I feel the school should help coordinating the whole registration process . I don't like how most all of the staff will only communicate through email, sometimes I would prefer to pick up the phone and actually talk to someone.
- Academic Experience: I wish my classes for criminal justice major were more on campus than online because I miss the people physically, this term is a bit more difficult due to all my classes are on line and there is no need to see classmates,professors, etc.
- Academic Experience: They accepted my credits from other schools readily. My homework and classwork assignments have all been manageable even under the duress of keeping a fulltime job and new addition to the family. And for my limited means they have managed to make things affordable to me.
- Student Body: Everyone is always nice to everyone else. Most student interaction is in the classroom or in the library.*(3)
