It’s a great Campus!
Overall 4.7
Campbell is an excellent school for pharmacy students or students looking for a smaller setting. I am completing my undergrad here in pharmaceutical science and then applying to our Pharmacy school. I have enjoyed the majority of the professors I have had and I have learned a lot in my two years here.

Every school is what you make of it. This one is central to nearby small towns and large cities. The clubs and local organizations keep you busy and there are regular activities and events at the school. I've enjoyed it so far, and I look forward to the next couple years.
Overall 4.5
Taking 100% online courses. AMAZING website and advisors for adult education/online courses. Easy to communicate and get help with degree planning. Friendly faculty and staff. Courses are easy to find and enroll. Courses are challenging and manageable. Many of my past courses transferred. Extremely happy with my choice to attend here.

Wonderful hometown feel!
Overall 4.3
Campbell is truly an amazing school! Everyone here is extremely welcoming and friendly, and there's so much you can get involved in on campus. My favorite thing about Campbell is certainly the professors and small class sizes. The profs (99% of them) are always willing to help, and they truly want to help you grow academically.

Campbell has a great atmosphere. It is in a small town, Buies Creek, but there is plenty to do on campus. There is a movie theater that plays some new release movies, so many clubs to choose from and some really great faculty. The class size is small so it was easy to speak with my instructors and schedule extra tutoring when needed.

I absolutely loved this school! It was the best 4 years of my life. I do know it's not for everyone, but it was the place meant for me.

The quality of education is fantastic. Career services actually helps you find a job. Business/Pharm/Med/PGM programs are incredible. Only thing that I can say truly sucks is the food.

I love CU
Bad reviews
Overall 1.1
It's in the middle of nowhere and the student population is way to small with no diversity. On top of that, I feel like no one knows about it. Lost credits transferring in and then I lost credits transferring out to NC State, but it was worth it just to get out and go to a normal college in a normal college town. Campus grounds are pretty, though.

No real college experience here whatsoever.
Overall 1.5
This is the place for you if you want to feel like you're at a church camp your entire college experience. I spent 3 years at CU and don't miss a thing because theres literally nothing to miss. If you want to be so bored that you study all the time this is the place for you. I mean it got me into pharmacy school...

Campbell is pretty much surrounded by a bunch of nothing. There's not a lot of fun things to do nearby, you have to drive anywhere you'd want to go. The social gatherings here revolve around religion, its a christian university, but it makes it awkward for anyone not religious students. Internet crashes at least once a week.

Can ya'll chill with the attendance policy?

Middle of nowhere. MAde some goof friends. Sucks that the transfer rate is some 67% if I remember correctly. Was happy to transfer out of here. Oh, and the food is horrendous.
