My overall experience with the school is good. I currently take online classes so I have not had much face to face contact with a professor my interaction and communicate is through student engage. I enrolled in a math class last year that required me to go on campus and that experience was good. The instructor explained the work assignments I detail, and showed examples giving step by step instructions. She was very passionate I carrying out the mission to assure that students understood the work and also that each student would accomplish his or her goal to understand the work and pass the class with a greater understanding of the work concepts. So I would say based on my experience Benedictine University is a good school to attend.
This school is really for me. I love the faculty, students, and the amount of people ready to assist me in my studies or finance. I am having a great college experience, thanks to Benedictine!
Benedictine University has one of the best athletic program in all of NCAA division 3. I am a firm believer of that because Benedictine offers a wide range of sporting events that most division 3 do not have. Sporting events at Benedictine are always on the rise every year. But we do not get enough fan support to cheer on our sports teams. So far, our basketball team is undefeated and is ranked number 6 in the nation. Our athletic facilities are state of the art. You could not find a better facility in the state. I am very thankful that i have this benefit. Benedictine University is made up of 75 percent of athletes. This means that majority of the school is filled with athletes. This is a good think because many students are involved in the activities.
