Cannot rate this school highly enough. my son transferred in after his sophomore year. The school at large, teachers, admin, students alike all welcomed him with open arms and really made him feel like part of the brotherhood immediately. He was an athlete and honor roll student. he is now playing D1 collegiate athletics and feels very confident going into it because of the preparation both in the classroom and on the field, that canisius provided. As a parent I really appreciate the feeling of family that this wonderful place provides. My wife and I consider ourselves honored that we had the privilege to send our son there.
Overall our experience at Canisius was very positive. Teachers are great and there is a lot to offer. Administration dropped the ball on the Covid graduation and prom, and they did not enforce appropriate discipline when it came to sports teams. Definately prepares for college.
Canisius has a brotherhood quality that you do not see at other schools, and along with having excellent academics, the school has retreat and service programs that really help each individual discover himself. One thing that I would change would be to lower tuition because that would allow more people to attend which would increase selectivity and improve academic competitiveness.
