I will be a freshmen this year and my experience so far is a good one! They have so much to offer when it comes to the student succeeding. They have tutors of course, but they have a writing center to help with any kind of paper you have to write, they many areas on campus to study, do homework in any subject and there is someone there to help! I love the fact they have online classes and that they have a work study program! I wish that they were a 4 year school because they are here in town, close by my kids school and husbands work, its convenient. I also like the small town feel, cant wait to see whats to come!
Review University of New Mexico - Valencia County
The staff has very helpful! Due to the size of the campus, the classes are small enough to get individual help. A drawback of the size of the campus is the amount of students they allow in certain degree programs (I.e. Registered nursing is only 16 students). All the degree sheets are very clear about what path is needed to obtain a certain degree or certificate. The campus is located in a rural area so reliable transportation is a must as there are little to no public transportation options.
I have just started the enrollment process and will be starting classes on the 21st of this month. So far everyone on campus has been extremely friendly and so helpful they really encourage me to accomplish anything I want.
