Ave Maria University Reviews
When I visited, it seemed like a great place with like-minded and kind people. However, since attending, I quickly realized how cliquish the culture is. There’s also NOTHING to do on or within 30 minutes of campus. The food is always undercooked or over salted, and everyone gets sick from it. Being served raw chicken is not a rare occurrence.
Academically, it’s not bad. Professors are generally willing to work with you. There is a lot of busy work in every class I’ve taken, which makes up for the stupidly hard tests.
There’s also a clear divide between the two main groups of people here: athletes and homeschoolers. And there’s more of a drinking culture at Ave than you would think… if you find your people, you should be fine. But if not, good luck. Just trying to warn anyone who thinks this place is a Catholic utopia… it’s not all that at Ave. At all.
Lastly, they overcharge room and board. In rooms meant for 2 people, they crammed 3 people. No price reduction
