Good reviews
Overall 4.6
Great School overall, I went here during the reconstruction of the student center and the new dorm. It is way better now compared to when I first enrolled. Mostly every Professor I've met really cares about your education. The size fit me as well. Classroom Sizes are perfect for me. No Lecture Halls which I think helped me thrive the most here.

Mostly pleased with this university for its size, which allows for a nice student to faculty ratio. The administration is fantastic, and the opportunities are boundless if you take the time to apply yourself and expand your horizons. I am looking forward to continuing my doctorate studies here at GBC.

I had a great experience at GBC. I was an RA, played a sport and was very involved on campus. It is a dead zone during the weekends, everyone goes home. Professors are great, student to professor ratio is about 20:1. Residence halls need to be updated. Lots of parking. Advisors are amazing.
Overall 4.1

The comfort level of the school is above average you can really be yourself in the school. There is lots to be learned from professors in the school.

IF you are ready for an education, come to Goldey. The environment and professors will offer their full attention to their students. I have learned so much information from my curriculum here, that it has turned into tools I may use for life. Goldey has great options for everybody. Night class, Master's Program & much more!
