申请点评

Academic Experience: They offer almost everything at the school.
Academic Experience: The thing that I don't appreciate about this program is how everything is last minute planning. As of right now, there is 2 weeks before fall semester starts and they still don't have schedules and clinicals ready for the students to enroll in. It's frustrating for me because I need to schedule work and such a month or 2 ahead of time. It's just ridiculous how they have no communication with the students and expect them to just have an open schedule the whole time.
Overall Experience: Classes usually fill up fast and the teachers I've had recently are helpful.
Overall Experience: My experience at my school, has been great so far. I've learned many things, I have met new people that like the same career as me. That has been my favorite experience. What makes my school unique is that in my school there is many people who will help you, professors and counselors. I would choose my school again because it offers programs that help students to transfer and in their academic life over all .*(3)
