Good reviews
Overall 4.6
I don't get why people complain about the rules, you should have known before you came here and it shows a lack of self-control on their parts. I am more optimistic than most and my ratings are def too high but idc, definitely check this place out if you want a small school with people who care.

ENC is a terrible school with no respect for their students or staff. They have extremely homophobic tendencies, disgustingly strict rules (which they dont disclose to you before coming), and most incoming freshman transfer after their first year. Would not even recommend it to the people I hate the most. DO NOT GO

I went here for two years and then transferred to another college then finally to a state school that was less expensive and had more professors and options in majors. ENC is the worst college I've ever been to. The administration doesn't care. I got assaulted on campus and they just told the guy to stay out of my building because I had no proof.

DO NOT GO!! The school is basically a cult. Waste of money and time. more than half of incoming freshmen transfer. If you come you'll soon find out why. You'd have more freedom @ a catholic college. Basically they have a rule and a fine for everything. They also don't tell you any of the OUTRAGEOUS rules when you first apply. DO NOT GO.

Not worth the price.

The professors and staff are not supportive of you and your goals with the exception of a select few To get into any club or ministry you have to suck up to the person in charge. Favorites and those with ethnic diversity will be chosen over talent or skill - they will even tell you that when you try outaudition. The only exception is sports.

I had to transfer out of the school. There is no spirit in the school, and tuition is ridiculous.

Obviously this is a Christian school so strict rules should be expected. The one thing they need to learn is being a Christian is work and they break you down on purpose to try to make you believe yourself instead of following. However, if you struggle with the belief do not expect people to sympathize they would sooner stab you in the back.
