Outstanding school with caring, supportive faculty and staff.
Overall 4.7
Great graduate school: Hard-working passionate professors; applicable and invaluable assignments; good student government benefits, and a robust renovation program that is keeping the facilities current. Internet, library are good and improving. Our Alliant Program coordinator has come to our campus to discuss student suggestions for improvement.

This university takes your money and run, no teaching no support, stay away if you want an education, go if you want to lose money

The school's quality and reputation are so dismal I am going on to do a second masters from a respected school, something I wish I would have done from the start. A complete waste of time and money, it should have its accreditation yanked.

The worse school
Overall 1.5
Too expensive. Student spend a lot of time clawing at each other rather than being supportive towards one another. Professor's only encourage this behavior. Professors are extremely arrogant and only care about getting published. They are self-absorbed and unprofessional. The staff here is also unprofessional.
Overall 1.5
Very expensive, very low academic level. Teachers are often incompetent and ignorant. And I'm an A Student..also no sports are offered...a meal in the dining hall costs $10...campus security kicks you at 12 pm out of the library for no reason...I honestly recommend to not attend this school...
Overall 1.7
Got rid of the finest professors and replaced them with inexpensive recent graduates as adjuncts who are simply academic but have limited applied experience.
Improve by bringing in less woke professors and hire well paid longer time ago graduated caring faculty.
Overall 1.7
This is a for profit University that used to have a good reputation until a few years ago (before it became for profit). It is full of bureaucracy and things that prevent you from learning. You can't even choose or sign up for your own classes, some poor assistant has to do it for 100s of students. The turn-around and burnout is everywhere. AVOID.
Overall 1.8
The school was fiscally irresponsible and the administrative functions are horribly disorganized. If you can handle absolute incompetence related to financial aid, registration and scholarship contexts you may survive the experience. The Bright Green MBA has great content but the program director is often unprofessional and at times is abusive.
