Chatham University Reviews
Amazing support system. Professors genuinely care about you.
In the center of Pittsburgh, so there are an abundance of opportunities for volunteering, work, and internships. Surrounded by nature but minutes away from the city life. (your student ID covers public transport).
There are constantly events held on campus for a plethora of topics. It is super easy, and encouraged, to get involved.
Chatham is VERY focused on leadership. They want you to succeed, so if you're someone that loves to get involved, Chatham is a great fit.
Cons:
Expensive. Chatham is a private school, so the price tag is high like any other private school.
Living on campus is a no. The dorms are not well taken care of. If you can live off campus with a friend, do it.
Classes are limited for their small programs, so you HAVE to work with your advisor to make sure you can take the right classes to graduate on time.
Campus is not very accessible for people with disabilities.
Campus is not diverse.
