Im not that smart academic person that of course would have a great experience in school. Im a basic lazy person. I can only speak for their Biotech & all I can say are positive things. The professor is so knowledgeable, always has all the connects & honestly holds it all together. The resources here, 100x better than what I received at my previous private 4 yr NYC university. The advisors, they are truly truly the best! I got an amazing internship that is really jumpstarting my entire life and career. they found ways to make my experience in waiting tables, retail valuable& relevant to my course work and career. JOIN STEM MENTOR PROGRAM. They have wonderful mentors that have helped me practice for interviews and just listen to me gab, many people have the same experiences. The school is so flexible and warm and giving, the location is beautiful you feel safe and bougee without a premium price. They are doing great with COVID just the labs in person so far which I actually like.
I am an incoming freshman at MassBay and the amount of resources they have for new students is insane! If you need assistance with anything such as money or filling out your FAFSA, the advisors there will definitely help you with every step on the application. In addition, they have a lot of support groups for those who are struggling financially, they can always figure something out! Considering MassBay is a great idea because you save so much money and can transfer to any college with a tuition discount!
Did CIS, Professor Riggs by far the best teacher I've had. Great school that allowed me to grow as a person, have fun while at school, and establish were I wanted to be in life.
Since this is a review and a bit ciritcal I'll say this. The student counclers that help you choose classes, establish graduation requirements, and in general help you need to be taken with a grain of salt. There are tons of people that are totally helpful in the department but there are also lazy dumb people who don't know what they are talking about so try to learn how to organize and manage school yourself like picking classes and knowing your degrees graduation path.
Speak to the assistant Deen when necessary on important matters. If there are any issues involving a teacher and student let them know to give guidence. Or help you when your stuck with a graduation requirement.
I cannot stress this matter but, TAKE PART IN THE CLUBS!
No more space to write but good luck everyone
