I attend this school as a postbacc student and I think that their program is fantastic. It's a small community, but it embraces people from all walks of life. The smallness of the school is also advantageous because it allows students to get to know professors and really be heard when they need their questions answered. If you're looking for a program to complete your pre-med coursework, Elms is definitely a top choice.
It is super easy to arrange a meeting or pop in to a professor's office to get questions answered, go over an exam or assignment, or to try to figure out the best route to get help. The ARC program in the library is a life saver! Its super easy to make tutoring sessions and the two tutors I've worked me have helped me greatly in my problem areas. I love pretty much everything but the one thing I wish the school had more of would be places to eat because there is only a tiny Starbucks café and cafeteria and sometimes they don't have what you're craving for.
There are dozens of off-campus dining options.Whether you are looking for a sit down dinner, some take-out, fast food, or delivery there are dozens of options to choose from. You range from pizza to Chinese to wings to any sort of fast food you could imagine. The costs are average but there are always coupons available! The best place to go in my opinion is Buffalo Wild Wings. The cost is cheap and it's a great place to bring a group of people and the best part is the huge tv's where you can enjoy the big game!
