Good reviews
Overall 4.5
The campus is clean and safe, great climate and town to go to and enjoy college. Faculty doesn't give favoritism, though they are approachable. Great social life off campus and networking with Florida University grads. The staff is great. No phoniness or placation. Makes alums clamoring for opportunity and attention jealous. :). Great choice.

Keiser University (Sarasota) is an excellent college that gives opportunity to students. It offers a broad selection of programs from an Associate's, Bachelor, Master, and even Doctorate Degree Programs. I am in the Education Program and enjoy it because professors are knowledgeable and committed my success!

Keiser University is by far an outstanding school. I enjoy the Sarasota campus very much! The professors are amazing and care greatly about their students. Classes are convenient only having to focus on one at a time, it lightens my load. It’s convenient to be able to enroll in a day or night class and work!

The Keiser University of Sarasota is a gorgeous campus adjacent to Lake Osprey which is very peaceful. The professors are very intelligent and resourceful towards students. I've found that my experience at KU led myself to become a strong individual with much desire to better each day more. Thank you KU!

They will not help you achieve your goals. It's totally about the money for them.

Think twice before attending this school, especially for nursing. I just finished the accelerated program & if I could go back I would have been more patient and went to a public university. This school is a scam. The director of the program is horrible. You do not get to chose your professors. The professors you get teach poorly. Do not attend.

Do your research before attending this school. 2 thumbs down for the PTA program. Youll learn a little, you need a lot. They pass everyone through, even those that dont deserve their grade bc they want to look reputable. Keiser PTA degrees are worthless, good luck finding employment.

The school is good if you just want to get through quickly. The instructors may be decent nurses but they are not very good teachers. Very unprofessional staff that talks about one another to students and the director leads through intimidation. Like I said, it's only 16 months but it's expensive and the quality is lacking
Overall 1.8
Very expensive school but shorter time

Don't waste your money on this school. The education is substandard and good luck on finding a job after graduating from their programs. Many hospitals will not hire Keiser students, because of the substandard education.
