So far I am really enjoying the small college atmosphere. Because the class sizes are small I have been able to have more one-on-one time with professors which has been helpful in my success so far. I really feel like my guidance counselors really care! I recommend this university to anyone who wants a solid college experience!

The school is great place to learn and and tutorial are free. The people need work on how to approach diversity students. The goal is to always make everyone feel welcome. Many of the teacher always help to make sure every students are understand each meaning of something. The community is nice, but very different. The WiFi is terrible. The school always have money to make a new building for classes,but never have money to make the WiFi better. The food is good. Many people complain, but I live in a house that sometime you luck to find peanut butter; just peanut butter in the house. I’m not complaining about Walsh food it wonderful at least the workers provide us something well done to eat. The campus is great place to workout and study.
Walsh University offers a strong sense of community that is not commonly seen on other campuses. Through activities such as intramural sports, the student body, regardless of grade, come together and enjoy a community-building experience.
