Since i've started going to Elms since 2019, ive enjoyed it. Initially, i thought the campus was bigger, but it's pretty small. That isn't a problem though because its so much easier to find the classes! The Elms college community is all good vibes. The only downside is some students, not all, aren't that nice. Ive had and experience myself that made me pull away from Elms a little. But besides that, everything is good.
This is a good school where you'll get a good education and employers will be impressed by the name. It's very expensive and even in a pandemic when they are moving classes (such as clinical experience) to online they will NOT return the fees you paid for in-person learning. There are a lot of frustrations regarding the departments like billing, financial aid, health services etc. To be fair I've learned a lot and had some great professors, but I have also had a lot of problems with how the school runs.
The teachers and staff are incredible. They are all very friendly and overall trying their to make sure everyone succeeds. There are also so many opportunities on campus. They have tutoring services, weekly activities, student government and so much more!
