Madonna is one of the greatest schools you could go to. Professors and staff are truly interested in your success, and will work with you to help get the job done! They are approachable and have convenient class hours for the working student. The campus is safe, there are plenty of organizations to be apart of, and the food is awesome too! If you like that small feel, intimate, one on one attention with a Christian background proudly displayed, Madonna is the place for you!
Review Madonna University
Madonna University is a school which i feel comfortable attending. Going into my second year i have gained multiple friends who chose the same major as me. Experiencing different teachers and their different ways of teaching, i have adapted to the college feel. Madonna University is a very welcoming university and is well-known for their nursing school. I chose Madonna University because the location is reasonable and the faculty and staff are great!
I was in a terrible accident several years ago that left me in a wheelchair. Since my accident I've had to deal with, and over come many obstacles. In addition to my physical limitations, I also have financial limitations. I live my life on a fixed income that prevents me from having and doing many things that I wish I could do. After exhausting all of my financial aide eligibility, Madonna has helped me in two separate instances when I was unable to pay my tuition. I've always done relivtivly well in my academics and have been on the deans list several times throughout my collegiate career. Being the best student I can be is very important to me. I'm really close to graduating and once again I'm faced with my inability to cover my tuition. I'll do whatever it takes to complete my degree at Madonna. Whenever anyone asks me how I feel about Madonna, my response is always the same. " Their amazing in every way and I'm forever grateful for all that thave done for me." I would recommend anyone who wants to send their child to a good school, to consider Madonna.
