Junior: If you're looking for a one of a kind college experience that is different from the norm, I would highly recommend Sierra Nevada University. Nestled in Incline Village in the Northern Sierra Nevada's, it offers a plethora of outdoor activities and a vibrant college social life. From paddle boarding on majestic Lake Tahoe to skiing the slopes of Mt. Rose or backpacking the Tahoe Rim Trail, the amount of exploration and opportunities for discovery are seemingly endless. The amount of personal time that the teachers are willing to put into every student is awesome in every sense of the word. I still talk to and check in with professors that I no longer even have. Not because I have a question that I need answered, but simply because of good rapport. If you're looking for a college that truly cares about the success of their students and takes the time to develop one's passions and skills, then you've come to the right place!... Read 207 reviews

Junior: Academically, the college lacks consistency. Certain programs, such as general education requirements, lack substantial teaching and learning. However, other areas of academics, for example, Biology, are vast and difficult. This disconnect in academics negatively effects my peers and I’s ability to preform consistently academically as-well. The smaller size of campus and student body aids to facilitate a familial and belonging feeling. Despite the low number of students, social events are happening frequently to foster community. I have learned factually, socially, and internally with my time at UVA-Wise, so overall the experience has been beneficial. Issues with the school would include a lack of diversity, small local community outside the campus, and fluctuations in academics. However, with adversity comes resilience and ability to foster change.... Read 243 reviews

Freshman: Working 8 AM - 5 PM makes going to college difficult, so I love how general classes are in the evening from 6 PM to either 8 or 9 PM (Depending on the class). Arizona College works with students if there are certain days that do not work for them. Although general classes are 8 weeks long, I like that there are only 2 classes at a time! There is a “hard” class and an “easy” class. This way, students do not have to worry about 2 difficult classes at a time. Since classes are only 8 weeks long, there are a lot of assignments! But as long as there is time management, getting an A and learning the material is possible! And I like how all general classes required to move on to core classes relate to what will be needed for core and in the nursing field! In my experience, professors make the class relatable by giving examples and insights as to how the class will help in the nursing field. And the professors have all been helpful.... Read 9 reviews

Sophomore: I like Chamberlain because the registration process is simple. They continuously follow-up with you and tell you what you need. They took majority of my pre-requisites from my previous school. Of course it’s expensive but what nursing school isn’t? They do offer financial aid and if you need to they accept private student loans as well. The classes are super fast paced so you cannot fall behind or it’ll be difficult to catch up. The teachers are helpful and will help you succeed!... Read 4 reviews

College Junior: Sometimes the courses don't make sense. When that happens, the professors teach in a different route and sometimes that creates a problem because they cannot access or make changes to the course. Most of the professors are really great. There is a fairly wide variety of classes that can be offered, but you might have to wait a session for one you're looking for. Class sizes are generally from 5 to 12, but can go higher or lower....

Niche User: With the limited experiences for me, the University has been tremendous. The professors are engaging, the classes have a good amount of students, the activities are festive and everybody enjoys them. The sermons are powerful, and there is appropriate separation between males and females that keeps people from making mistakes and poor decisions. People learn in different ways, and the professors took this to a level I haven't experienced while in high school. People learn in different ways, kinesthetically, orally, visually; but most people don't comprehend things that others do. There was student-professor interaction that allowed each of us to explore our interests, engage in discussion, and pique our interest. That was just the classroom setting! The activities are amazing. School festivals with magnificent decorations and fun activities, trips to the beach, a museum! There's something for every interest at Regent University, and I can't wait to attend full-time.... Read 979 reviews
