      Graduate Student: Professors are professional, empathetic, and knowledgable in their field in the social work department. It is near Washington Square Park where many people hang out whether its laying in the grass, skateboarding, or listening to music. Campus is large and clean. Although, a racist action had taken place on campus, there seems to be an active anti-racist sentiment that is bing developed into the campus culture.

        • 5 reviews

        Graduate Student: I have attended the University of Rochester School of Nursing for my Bachelors degree in nursing and am currently enrolled for my doctorate of nursing practice degree to become a family nurse practitioner. The school has flexible class times, including evening class time for students who work traditional day-time hours. Many of the classes are completely online or hybrid courses. The professors are often practicing nurses or advanced practice nurses, which allow students to obtain the best possible education. The school is across the street from Strong Memorial Hospital, which makes it convenient for students to juggle work and school schedules.

I'm forever grateful that I choose Binghamton; Go Bearcats!

            • Fordham University

              • Graduate School
              • Bronx, NY
              • 12 reviews

              Graduate Student: When I went back to graduate school for Social Work, several people recommended Fordham to me - I am very grateful they did. The Graduate School of Social Service has a focus on Social Justice that I have not seen from any other program. The faculty is extremely positive and helpful and my learning experience at Fordham-Lincoln Center has been incredibly rewarding. I have learned more than I could have previously imagined in the past two years about public policy, the socio-economic factors that shape our society, injustices that our clients may (and often do) suffer from, and to simply have compassion and empathy for our clients as we work with them to improve their lives. I had thought I was aware and well-informed about the factors that shape our society but my professors at Fordham have shown how (and where) to look deeper, to see more, and to advocate for positive change in our society for those who cannot speak for themselves.

                  Graduate Student: Great school! You get an IVY league education for a fraction of the price. School is absolutely one of the best for College of Arts & Music, College of Engineering, and its computer science programs. School does not have such a good pre-health department. Biology classes are much harder than they need to be. Not many resources are available for tutoring and help in biological science classes. In addition if you need to speak with a biology advisor there was no walk in options. Sometimes it took as long as 4 weeks to meet with an advisor.

                  • CUNY Brooklyn College

                    • Graduate School
                    • Brooklyn, NY
                    • 7 reviews

                    Graduate Student: After my experience at Brooklyn College, I now truly consider it to be "the poor man's harvard." My experience as a Bachelor of Science degree candidate in biology was excellent. The professors were quite knowledgable and the courses were challenging enough to prepare me for medical school. Any negative reviews from people who have attended Brooklyn College must have been from students who did not take advantage of the endless resources and opportunities that are provided by the school. In addition, the cheap tuition (under $7,000 per year) allows students to receive a top-notch education at a bargain price! Most students graduate debt-free and loan free. The one thing I didn't like about Brooklyn College was that the non-science courses were easier than I would have hoped. I have received an A+ in almost all of the non-science courses that I completed.

                      • 30 reviews

                      Freshman: I chose to go to Columbia, and I am overall happy with my decision. At the end of the day, the reason you go to any university depends very much on what you want. So I'll try to cover all the bases! These are reason why I and people I know chose to go to Columbia, and some reasons I didn't think of at the time.The best reason to attend Columbia University is the diverse amount of literature and resources that a student gains access to. I believe that if there was one thing I regretted, it was not being able to finish reading all of it!

                        Graduate Student: The program I partook in academically was great and they were making good efforts to become more acceptable to diversity of thought and background but maintained up to date and research supported teachings. The only major negative was lack of communication between offices that poorly effected experience, placement, work and advancing through the program for many.

                            Graduate Student: It is a little bit harder for me to tell you about the everyday experiences of a college student. This is because I was a Student Athlete participating on the baseball team. You don't have the same experiences as others do due to your jam packed schedule. I was in Tobin, the business school, and the professor were great. most brought real life experience into the classroom. Giving you a little insight into what the business world will be like when you graduate.

                                  Graduate Student: I am part of a very small program, which is fantastic for me after coming from a large undergraduate institution. Despite the smaller size, we have a very diverse group of students and work together very well. The full-time faculty in the forensics program are fantastic and are always available to provide guidance. Other faculty I've encountered have varied in their teaching style and openness to students, but have generally been respectful and helpful. The campus is beautiful and I, personally, have not had any issues with faculty or fellow students. I'm so glad I made the choice to come back to school and join this program.

                                    Hope every people could have chance to study in that university.Sadly from little countries like Georgia,we students have not got that opportunities to be a part of that succesful place. Without scholarships its impossible. I have dream to get that chance.
                                    Thanks

                                      Graduate Student: Good programs, but could use some more solid courses. Many courses depend on student interest and involvement to gain information. Professors are knowledgeable but pretty lenient, which does not always serve the students to learn as best as possible.

                                        Graduate Student: Not a school if you're looking for easy classes or diversity. The professors at every level kick you butt, however they make sure you learn the material to prepare you to be professionals. For that reason, Saint Rose a lot of praise for not treating students as numbers.
