In 2021, I graduated from Washington High School Of Information and Technology. I dreamed of going forward with my education, so I attended Alverno College as an undergraduate student. Alverno is one of the best colleges in Milwaukee, Wisconsin a great nursing program. It has classes with few students inside. Students have extra time with their Instructors, which I have found so helpful for students, especially me.
This was my first experience at Alverno college. The first time, I was a bit confused with the grading system. Alverno doesn't have grades such as A, B, C, and D. It has satisfactory, unsatisfactory, and Failure. I didn't get the reason for this grading system. Now, I am glad to know the reason. Guess what? I found that Alverno's system wants students to focus more on their knowledge from courses than grades, and this knowledge will prepare undergraduate students for future jobs after graduation. I would like to see Alverno exceed the gymnasium and make it comfortable.

I really love how inclusive and empowering Alverno is. It's an all girls school and I always feel excepted and cared for by my peers and the staff. It provides a strong education to female students whilst helping them make connections and offering real world experience. At Alverno everyone is there to aid in your success. If you are someone who requires one-on-one time with a teacher or extra help, there will always be someone to help you.
So far transferring into Alverno has been a process, but I'm thankful to be given the opportunity to be a part of their nursing program!
Such a considerate school that thinks about all of their students. No matter the age, everyone is worried about and cared for. Such a great school with great professors.
I like Alverno College because it is linked to the Milwaukee public school system and gives me the opportunity to study and obtain my teacher license.
Alverno College has helped me grow as a person and as a woman. The classes are suited to ensure the best education possible as well as feeling apart of a special community.
Overall, Alberto has a diverse and educational atmosphere. The people there are friendly, helpful, and determined.
Great School! You will be happy to earn a BSN and an MSN in their new DEMSN program that only takes 18 months.
I love Alverno for many reasons but one that really stook out to me when applying was its small size. It's a very close community of students and faculty. This is a great school if you like learning more one on one or in small groups. I have developed many great relationships with faculty and staff. definitely a comfortable place. One thing I wish Alverno would improve on is having more community events. This way we could be introduced to more students who aren't in our majors.
Alverno is very special. The way they teach is unique and challenging. The atmosphere is very encouraging and supportive of becoming the best woman that you can be.
I have attended Alverno College for about 2 and a half years now. I graduate with my Bachelors in Nursing this fall. My experience thus far has been great, the professors at Alverno want to see you succeed. I noticed that this college has so much diversity and they truly care about your college experience. I plan to come back to Alverno for my masters in the near future.
What I mostly love about Alverno College is that it is a diversity campus. Everyone is very accepting and caring. Attending Alverno College feels like a home, we are all family here and it feels great to be part of this beautiful community. The overall concept of this college is great, the professors are always aiming for our success, they are always helping us grow as learners and human beings. The fact that every staff member here at Alverno cares that much for our education and us is very loving. I am glad I decided to attend Alverno College it has really helped me grow for the better.
As I'm preparing to enter my last semester at Alverno and in reflecting on my past few years I can genuinely say I've grown so much. Additionally, I've observed my own growth in my major as I navigate with the support of my instructors through my classes. I've grown as a professional and continue to enhance my learning. Alverno truly emphasizes women empowerment.
DO NOT APPLY HERE AS A NURSING MAJOR. You will regret it. This program needs so much work, and that goes for any level nursing degree you are looking for. The staff/professors are incredibly rude and difficult to work with. The continue to increase the tuition every year if not every semester, but this isn’t reflected at all in the program. All of the supplies/manikins and anything else they use for student practice are old, broken, and a waste of time. The CLC is always full and messy. There is no respect for the students and our issues. They will change around your schedule without you being aware and they also change classes to online very last minute. They hire staff that have never taught before, making it impossible to set expectations for us as students. You will fail classes due to the disorganization of this school, and they do not care about us as individuals! Everything here is a money grab ESPECIALLY FOR ANYTHING NURSING. Im not sure about the other majors.
Double Alumna, HERE!! I received my first degree from Alverno College 25 years ago! I am now in the doctoral program. Alverno may not be perfect(nowhere is), but Alverno acknowledges that imperfection is part of learning. Alverno students learn to accept that the opportunity for growth is in our mistakes as humans. Valuing people and extending grace is what I learned at Alverno College. If you are looking for a challenge that has zero to do with comparing yourself to the awesomeness of others, Alverno is for you. Get ready to work, though, because it will not be easy. Nothing of value is ever easy.
My professors have made conscious efforts to make online learning doable for everyone. I still have learned so much this semester and had no trouble completing my work as normal.
I love Alverno! I have never felt so important and valued in a school setting before. So glad I found a good fit for me!
Alverno College has a unique academic strategy that prepares you for "the outside world". The performance based grading allows for self improvement instead of student to student comparison. Diversity of students is represented as many first generation students attend here! Class sizes are small and professors accommodate to your learning needs. To strive at this college, one must be motivated, dedicated, and have a willingness to grow.
Alverno has handled their online learning system fairly well. All the professors are willing to meet with you via zoom and are always making sure their students are comfortable with their learning experience.
Alverno is a great school with many opportunities for all its students to shine and succeed. The sisterhood is strong between all students and everyone is willing to help one another.
