Some things I like about Spalding University , would be how small we are. I know that may sound crazy but I have learned small schools have many benefits such as you know everyone, you make good bonds with your professors, and also you can always meet with your professors. Here at spalding I would say we are a tight nit college. But with that being said we do need some change. My biggest concern sense attending Spalding University would be our safety. We have amazing campus security, but we are in a very dangerous part of the city. One example is me and some friends seen someone get stabbed in our student parking lot (not a student) So, I feel as if the biggest change needs to be more security on campus. Overall I think Spalding University is a good college where everyone knows everyone!
Spalding is a small college in downtown Louisville, KY. I love the location and the options the city gives. Class scheduling is one of the reasons that I chose Spalding. They do block scheduling...you only have 2 classes at one time and you have those classes for 6 weeks. Then, you have a week break. Then, pick up two new classes for 6 weeks and so on. No cramming for finals...finals are the 2 classes at the end of the 6 weeks! Class size is small because it's a small school. Oh, and you have Fridays off! It's been a really good fit for me.
Spalding University in state tuition is much cheaper than out of state. Spalding university is awesome and offering good options for your degree and career. They helping with my classes and found better path for me to career that I want. My degree is natural science, it will help me to my career to become teacher I wanted then start study at Eastern University for master degree of teaching
