Charles R. Drew University of Medicine & Science Reviews
Rating 4.54 out of 5 37 reviews
I am currently enrolled in the Post Masters Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program. I already have my Master's Degree in Nursing but the program is definitely competitive and intense! There was about 80 students enrolled at the beginning but at the moment, there's only about 60 of us. We meet 4 days per month. I knew few students who dropped from the program after a week (couple of them dropped even after a day!) because they did not find the platform effective. There was a lot of confusion and disorganization even for the professors. Remote learning is definitely challenging especially with the pandemic but I see CDU's improvement compared to our first month of class. My only hope is that the program and the professors will focus on helping us become nurse practitioners prepared for the real world.
I chose Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science for my medical school because its mission aligns with my desire of serving underserved communities. This is my first year attending the school and I can already see how supportive the faculty and staff are. I feel as though they are family and I am not afraid to ask them for help if I need it. I would have to say the worst part about CDU is that the tuition is expensive. The school has been trying its best to find scholarship donors to fund our journey, but they have been unsuccessful. I believe if the tuition was cheaper, it would allow me to focus more on my studies and decrease my financial stress. Overall, I am happy with my decision on choosing Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science as my medical school.
CDU is an amazing school. If you love caring for the underserved community, then Charles Drew University is the place for you! It is in the middle of Watts with a unique vision to provide service to the underserved community.
