I love Anna Maria College so very much! It is truly a community where people are friendly and service-oriented. I have felt most comfortable being authentic here. Oh, and the campus grounds are so beautiful & peaceful. I have always felt safe walking around the whole campus, even in the night. Be sure to visit the pond near the back between classes

If you have the chance to go to another school do it Anna Maria is a waste of your time and money. I wasted around 50 grand or so in just one year with tuition the location is trash along with the sports. If you were a trash athlete in high school and wanna keep playing but not a juco AMC is the place for you. If you wanna party good luck w the RDs

The nursing program is TERRIBLE. One professor told me to my face when I was really struggling (with a learning disability) that I would never be a nurse. I worked my butt off, went to extra help, etc. The teachers just do not support you, THEY WANT YOU TO FAIL!!! SO MESSED UP!!! I take responsibility for my learning but this environment is toxic.

Most of the nursing professors are rude, and unsupportive. From the bottom of my heart I urge you to not go here. I will regret my decision to attend this school for the rest of my life, but I transferred and am so much happier. The main problem is they set you up to fail! Studying 20+ chapters for one nursing test is insane. Dont come here!!!!

I'm concerned with the nursing program's 78% pass rate in 2016. The amount of people that fail classes who are TRYING their best is disappointing. Students who have failed SHOULD be a concern to this college, however all they care about is $$$$$. I really do not like this college at all, I want to transfer but I've spent too much time and money.

Go to the library today to print and of course get yelled at for 'printing too much', yet it is part of my tuition. Since printing is free I should be able to print whatever the hell I want for my classes, it is ridiculous. Also, never count on them plowing the parking lots they never do. The football field is plowed before the parking lots.

The worst nursing program in world. The instructors are not helpful. No review after exams, you dont get to see what you got wrong. All you see is your grade, and you cant challenge it. The instructors have their favorite students. I wish someone told me about the nursing program earlier. Every nursing student has anxiety or depression.

Very unwelcoming quite school, gets boring very fast although I did enjoy the academic aspect but other than that it is hell

If applying for their nursing program, beware. They will admit virtually anyone just to take your money. If you fail one class, you stay back a year. Currently, they are failing people and making tests hard just to get money from people and make them stay back. It's ridiculous. They do not care about the success of their students at all. Very sad.
