Sophomore: I couldn't wait to share my experience with everyone! I was amazed by the excellent communication and thoughtful attention to every last detail from beginning to end. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel appreciated as a student and welcomed. With calming music playing in the background and a tastefully designed room, the ambiance was welcoming. My expectations were significantly exceeded by the quality of the goods or services provided; it was obvious that only the best components were put to use. The addition of additional diversity to their goods is the one item, though, that I would most like to see changed. Don't get me wrong, they offer excellent service as it is, but I think adding more items to their repertoire could appeal to a larger audience.... Read 1,950 reviews

Freshman: I love my experience at Xavier, even as a freshman everyone is so kind and welcoming. It is a tinier undergrad number but the campus is spacious. With there not being that many undergrads it is easier to know so many people on campus and makes it easy to have small class sizes. Many classes are between 20-30 students. They also put on many student activities so students have chances to get out and meet people. Every student has three different advisors to help with academic, life, and jobs. You are set up with a constant support system to make sure you have everything you need to succeed. It is such a positive environment and has been such an easy transition. It is a great school!...

Senior: This school is a truly transformative experience! It's affiliated with the Roman Catholic church, but the student body and amazing faculty are very diverse and stimulating. Everything about the culture of this school serves the spirit of the liberal arts tradition, and it shows. What makes it really great is how small and locally-grounded it is. TMU has a great reputation for quality education regionally, and the institutional ties to the community are very strong. The community on campus is thriving and intimate (2K-2.5K Student Pop.) with a lot of very different groups and involvements. I'm proud to be graduating from TMU and would recommend it to any student wanting a strong education. This goes doubly for the science majors, who will get hard-to-find relationships with faculty and copious opportunities for research opportunities (e.g. the fantastic Biological Field Station right on the Ohio River sponsors students in freshwater ecology research and education projects)....

Senior: Really love the small class sizes and flexible scheduling, plus the fact that their programs are extremely good. Breaks the stereotype of "inferior" community colleges. The horticulture program there is one of the best in the country!... Read 670 reviews

Freshman: My experience at Mount St. Joseph University was truly exceptional, allowing a lasting positive impact on both my academic and personal growth. The university's commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive community was evident from the outset. The knowledgeable and approachable faculty members played a pivotal role in my academic journey, providing not only valuable insights into their respective fields but also fostering a dynamic learning environment. The campus itself exuded a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, with state-of-the-art facilities that enhanced my educational experience. Beyond academics, Mount St. Joseph offered a plethora of extracurricular activities and clubs, allowing me to engage with like-minded peers and develop a well-rounded skill set. The emphasis on community service and social responsibility further enriched my college experience, instilling in me a sense of purpose and a commitment to making a positive impact....

Freshman: I am currently enrolled in gateway community and technical college for an online computer programming course. Overall I love the convenience and affordability this school provides along with a variety of other helpful resources such as work ready programs, counseling for those struggling (let's be honest most have more than school droning on your every day life and a release of this tension could be all it takes to make or break someone's determination to finish their course), daycare, and plenty others. I recommend this program to anyone looking to further their education!... Read 174 reviews

Sophomore: I have attended MUM for 3 semesters and they have been highly enjoyable! The classes are lead by very capable and knowledgable professors who are willing to lend aid wherever possible. The student body is a very complacent and nice group of individuals, a good portion of which come from Asia as transfer students. The campus is situated in a place surrounded by forest (not deep or thick forest) whith interweaving trails. The English Learning Center faculty holds various events throughout semesters that are very fun and relaxing, such as a meditation room during finals week or holding an Asian culture day. MUM is a wonderful school and location and I would recommend it to anybody and everybody!... Read 143 reviews
