I really love being here. Is a great place to come to advance in your occupation. I am also a resident and I would say its cool but not really for me. There are things they really need to work on but overall the everything is great here for me.

At MSV, if youre not involved and leave on weekends, then you'll be miserable. Mount Saint Vincent has great professors eager to help you learn. Mastronardi hall is an amazing dorm with great, caring resident advisors and the bottom of Marillac Hill has a breathtaking view of the GW bridge.

As long as you join a club, a sports team, or make a few friends in your classes, you will love CMSV! When I first came, I was unsure about the school, but now, almost a junior, it was possibly the best decision I could have made. Our nursing and business programs are amazing and because it is a small school, we are like one big family.

This is a great school. I have leaned many things from my professors, and would really recommend going to this school. The size of the school is small, but there are many things to do with Manhattan only 12 miles away. The neighborhood is great. I have never had a problem walking around in the neighborhood.

Their nursing program has not accommodated for any student as they forced their students to accommodate to schedules with no warning until the very last second and they will not send you any type of recollection or apology. They do not help commuters, and everything in the nursing program is paid for by yourself, including paying for homework.

I enjoy that the school is small, and it's easy to get to know your professors, but there are more cons then pros. There isn't a wide variety of clubs, the school is super clicky, so no social life at all. This school reminded me too much of high school, it felt like a fake college. This school is a scam. Don't believe everything they say.

This college is the worst! Save your money, do not go there. Their nursing program is the worst, it is a big scam. They told me they have a campus in Queens big lie. The location in queens is not a campus, it's the 3rd floor of a building that they rented. The professors do not care , they do not teach and they behave as though the school is free.

Making the decision to go to CMSV was the worst decision of my life. I had a horrible experience. There is NOTHING to do on campus! The teachers dont care! The coaches that I had were very demeaning. They put 3 people in small dorms and there is no space to move! The campus has mice and rats!. The food is bad! And there is one place to eat.
Overall 1.2
I regret going to this school. I remember CMSV being my first choice they made everything look great during the orientation to but I was wrong. If you are a commuter you barely have any chance of making friends and if you dorm it feels like highschool. The staff is HORRIBLE especially admissions and financial aid. Dont wase your $ and go elsewhere.

This school only wants money. Registering for classes is always a mess and the financial aid as well. The school is EXTREMELY boring with nothing to do unless you join the boring clubs they ave. No one talks in this school unless they know each other. The schools dirty as well. They have no good classes and more expensive than what it's worth.
Overall 1.5
Go anywhere else.
