This is an overall great university! If you are not looking for a party school, but want to be around people with various backgrounds then this is the place for you. Downtown Kansas City is 15 minutes away along with plenty of places to eat, shop, and hang out (on a college students budget). The academics are pretty standard for a 4 year university and the average class size is less than 30 students. We have an awesome, new school President that engages with students and is hoping to expand and make this university greater!
I am not a traditional student at Park, as I take all of my classes online. So far, my classes have been fairly difficult, but because the instructors have been so willing to help me, I have done well. I like the environment of the college, as I have visited a couple of times. I also love the price (very modestly priced for the value). I would like to see more parking on campus, as it is quite a walk if most of the parking is full. Overall, a very nice school and I would definitely recommend!
I received my bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Park University. I took all of my classes online or at a satellite campus so I have no experience with the brick and mortar campus. The classes are not easy so if you are looking for a degree mill, keep looking. Classes are challenging and Park has a good solid reputation. I recommend!
