My experience at Holy Names University has been very special and is an experience I will always hold dear to my heart. This University is facing some financial struggles of its own, so I wouldn't recommend any future freshman to enroll due to the instability of the university's future. If I knew for a fact that Holy Names was safe and would be around for a while longer, then this school would be on the top of my list for recommendations. The professors care about their students, dorm life allows you to create a chosen family, and the atmosphere feels motivating and encouraging. I never feel alone here and it's just what I needed to thrive.
Holy Names provided great care for their students. The small classes helped me be able to get one on one tutoring with my Professors. Every Professor at Holy Names challenges you. The career service is amazing! They truly want to see you succeed. The counselors help students prepare for applying to jobs, give us tips, and they even offer mock interviews. The scheduling advisors are very helpful and knowledgable. They make sure every student is on track. They make sure students are taking the coordinate classes for their major.
My learning experience with Holy Names University , is really great! The teachers teach everyone slow pace at first, and then they help each student individually as much as they need help with. This is great for when a student like myself misses a concept, the teacher goes back over it so that I can have a better understanding.
