I am a freshman at MNU and I love it so far! The atmosphere and the professors are great! The small class sizes allow for a great one on one experience, helpful when trying to achieve higher grades! We are currently changing some things on campus like the new campus center, I think this will be a great change and addition to our campus!
I absolutely love the small, family atmosphere my campus has. For me, it is important to create personal relationships, and here I can do that. Professors know you by name and you are not just a number. MidAmerica is a faith based, private, Christian school, and faith is number one in my life. God is the focus, and I am able to surround myself with others that want to help me grow in my faith not pull me away. Overall, the campus is amazing and beautiful. I guess what I would change is definitely the cafeteria, but also lowering tuition. I do not feel that the school should be $42,000 a year, and still be raised each year.
Terrible. You are fined if you do not go to mandatory chapel. Title 9 reports are ignored. Residential life is not supportive, nor helpful. There is nothing to do if you are not an athlete. Dorm rules are strict. Guys/girls are not allowed in dorms on tuesdays and Thursday’s past 11pm. Dorm WiFi is often bad and the vents are filled with mold and mildew. People are condescending and there aren’t many events held. The cafeteria has had several health code violations. The ONLY good thing I can actually say about this place are the teachers. The teachers care about their students, although they are not paid enough. The classes are small, however you can find that experience at many private university’s.
