Very proud of my alma mater.

Johnson & Wales University has a great reputation within the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area. Whenever I say I go to Johnson & Wales, the common response is, "Wow! That is a great school!". For that, I am proud. Campus is small, food alright (some days are better than others). The area is alright but stay on the east side of the campus (bisc. blvd.).
Overall 4
Outstanding education with exceptional developmental and hands-on opportunities. While the campus is small and the food is lacking on days, they never seize to amaze when it comes to the education they provide (especially the College of Hospitality Management!). Overall, couldn't be more proud to be a Wildcat.

Johson & Wales North Miami does not take care of the students. There are all always drama and gossip. Recidential life instead of taking care of the student, they scare them, making them to feel like crap. Also, the student, specially the staff, think that are better than anyone. It is good to see how those students always have more privilege.

(Transfer student from PVD)Out of the 4 locations at JWU, as far as the quality of the campus goes. The N. Miami campus is the worst. Located in the ghetto of North MIA. Well known for being the easiest campus, 1/2 of the teachers are horrible, has a dress code, expensive food, anoying rules (that pvd doesnt have), such a small campus (2k students)

If you are looking for a culinary career come here. Other than that the other degrees are a waste.
