Closer to the home, religious environment. Parents preferred this college and felt safe with a choice. Looking back, not sure why I chose this university but I did. I was offered a partial scholarship and I knew others who had attended.
Course Curriculum :
Needs expansion and greater consideration for non-religious responses. Most of what was taught were done so through a religious lense, not practical for potential practitioners in the field. A broader consideration for a variety of experiences and clientele is necessary.
Fees :
For a private university, the tuition was expected. However, the rate of tuition does not match the provided experience. Housing and dining options are also extremely subpar.
Examination Structure :
Inconsistent. Some professors had well-organized exam schedules and exam content. They also returned grades in a timely manner. Others did not have an organized schedule and took months to return grades. The final exams were also inconsistent.
Faculty :
The faculty was mixed. Some professors are well-versed in many facets and aspects of their field. Others were not. Many professors did not offer applicable or helpful advice for starting a career post-graduation. I had a professor discourage me from pursuing a graduate degree.
