I love it here! everyone is so nice!!!

A great uni that offers tons of opportunities for individual student recognition/awards. If you're looking for a laid-back party school this definitely isn't it- it's a well-known school with rigorous academic challenges and a chill ambience on campus. The cafes serve good food, the classes have great professors. Better than temple tbh ;)

Not my top choice, however they accepted me challenged me more then I thought I would be, and even had me thinking about quitting often, this school is Darn Tough Certified. Be prepared to be overwhelmed, overcritiqied, and undercompensated for none other than an Acedemia Challenge. I am so happy to say goodbye, and will miss some great people.

Go somewhere else

Horrible. Scars you. So beyond intense when they don't need to be. Don't go here for nursing. Classmates who transferred to other AND more respectable nursing schools in the area were less stressed, more successful, and actually made it with their cohort without having as many failures (if at all). Go to a school that is for the students. Not money
Overall 1.5
Horrible school for undergraduate. I've heard better things with their graduate program. But undergraduate acacemics is completely unhealthy mentally. Professors think putting you down and breaking you to dirt is the best way to make you the best graduate once you leave there. No respect for this school. Especially fast track nursing.

Holy Family is a nice school if you don't want to socialize. This place is very boring on the weekend only athletes stay on campus & very few non athletes. I would highly advise to NOT attend. The grading system sucks, it is super hard. The university portrays they care about students at open houses but they really don't care once you give them $$$

I 100% regret going here. I only chose this school because it was local. WORST. CHOICE. EVER. I live on campus and I've never wanted to be home all the time so badly. Bad area. Bad people.

Good if you live in the area and want to commute. Grading system is terrible. Living on campus isn't "the college experience" so go elsewhere if your looking for that.

If you like just school and nothing else then this is the school for you. It’s mainly a commuter school so. The teachers are mostly nice and you get one on ones with them bc the classes are small but besides that everything else here is terrible. The worst social place you will ever experience, nothing here is good besides the teachers.
