Sophomore: My decision to come to Bay Path has been one of the most rewarding so far. I truly mean it when I say Bay Path University is my home away from home. This is somewhere you can really find yourself, discover new passions, and create lasting connections. I couldn't be happier with my decision to attend! The quality of the professors here have left the most impactful impression on me! They are experts in their fields but also genuinely caring and supportive individuals who are invested in their students' success. They go out of their way to make themselves accessible and approachable, whether it's for extra help with coursework or just to chat. I couldn't picture myself anywhere but here:)... Read 699 reviews

Freshman: Overall, Penn State Scranton is a very nice university. It is simple, close to many things, and calm. However, my only complaint is that sometimes it is a little bit too simple. Sometimes it will feel as though I am not at college and instead just feels like a chore. A lot of students really don't speak to each other and professors are the same way. Again, this is not always and majority of the time it is very nice.... Read 117 reviews

Other: Entering Joyce Nursing School was like stepping into a world where compassion and knowledge intertwined seamlessly. From the moment I walked through the doors on orientation day, I felt a sense of purpose and excitement about embarking on my journey to become a nurse.The first weeks were a whirlwind of lectures, practical sessions, and getting to know my fellow classmates. The faculty members at Joyce Nursing School were not only experts in their field but also incredibly supportive mentors.

Alum: I was a transfer student and a commuter at GMercyU. GMercyU was extremely communicative and helpful during my application process. They got me started right away, and accepted all of my credits for my program. I was awarded scholarships which helped me be able to afford school. I was a marketing major, and their business school was impressive and growing quickly. The professors have real world experience and have practiced in the industry for years, prior to teaching. The class sizes are smaller, so you get one-to-one attention and support from your professors, which helps you thrive. You are a person here, not a number. On top of this, the student activity and clubs on campus are always fun and engaging. You'll never regret going to an event, and you can meet so many new people and network! It is extremely safe on campus. You can't enter the campus without student ID or speaking with Public Safety. I was never worried to walk around on my own or at night. I loved my experience here!...

Junior: So far, Molloy's been great! The Social Work department is really small but incredibly diverse, with a strong connection to alumni. During my first class with the program my professor put me in touch with an alumni with similar interests with me, which was really helpful considering how nervous I was. I'm also apart of the honors program, which includes some really interesting classes (I especially enjoyed Art History with Dr. LaMonica). The events held on campus, specifically the International Education department, are really fun! The size of the campus is also helpful because getting to classes is easy, since two of the buildings are connected (I love the tunnel SO MUCH).... Read 689 reviews

Sophomore: I love the professors, they are very personable and will connect with you. Since it is a small school, you will get the opportunity to meet many different and unique people. The Campus Activities Board (CAB) and the RAs have great events, but I wouldn’t say there are many major traditions. It is a dry campus, meaning no alcohol but I really don’t see any issues with this since there is so much more to do and so many other ways to have fun.... Read 383 reviews

Freshman: Overall Metro State is a good school with good programs. I believe that the academics and ability to learn in multiple ways (via online/on campus/etc) are very wonderful aspects of Metro. However, there isn't much student life here. For those wanting the "typical college student life experience" you will not find that here. The clubs aren't super active, there are few events, and there aren't any sports or student housing opportunities. For those reasons I am actually transferring. This school is very diverse though which I will miss. I think that this school is geared more towards working adults, parents, or students looking for an all online experience.... Read 508 reviews

Sophomore: McPherson College is a good small school for people searching for a college where they can interact with their professors. The teachers really care about their students and the teachers I have had so far all have helped me improve myself in one way or another. The housing is pretty much just okay. The food can be very hit or miss, but the company that works with the school really tries to improve and contently ask for student impute. The college is also in the middle of expanding, so some of the construction has kind of inconvenient. Also, it seems like the college hasn't listened to student impute about the expansion because almost all the students mainly want more parking on campus and a better housing experience in some of the dorms....

Sophomore: Cairn University is a great fit for me! As a music education major, I can attest to the fact that the music program is top-notch with excellent faculty who strive to help you succeed academically and spiritually. The experiences I have had so far, including working with children in a music classroom my first semester, helped solidify my choice to pursue music education and excite me for future field opportunities. The professors take the time to get to know you as an individual, and they are always ready to connect with you, help you, or pray for you. The Christian community is extremely uplifting and edifying. The Bible classes and chapels integrated into the curriculum have helped me to grow as a Christian in the midst of my academic pursuits. Finally, the incredible Cairn community of students from all over the country and the world is truly something you can't find anywhere else. I highly recommend Cairn as an excellent choice for higher education from a Biblical perspective!... Read 543 reviews

The small class sizes allowed for personalized attention from my professors, who took a genuine interest in my academic and personal growth.

The beautiful, tree-lined grounds provided the perfect setting for studying, socializing, and exploring my newfound independence.
