For those of us who prefer a small campus community and accessibility to all kinds of resources that are essential to SERIOUS students, this is an awesome university! I did all my undergraduate and graduate work here so I spent a few years living on campus and later off campus. I had a few professors I did not like; however, that's anywhere u go.

If you do not like small schools then do not go there but overall Iam absolutely inlove with this college. You meet so many nice people from so many different places. Teachers are very nice and writing and math labs are the best things the school has ever invented!

Barry University is probably one of the worst universities I've attended. Literally one semester. The location is OK, besides being in the middle of the ghetto. Dirty is the perfect word to describe the dorms, & old ! For 42k a year I'd expect more modern buildings. The food is disgusting, I was throwing up curry by mid semester & professors SUCK!!
