Langston University is an HBCU with potential! With great food, sense of togetherness, academia focus, and supportive networks - Langston thrives. I am grateful a Langston admin helped changed my life when I didn't know I needed saving.

There are so many students have been stuck here for the past 7 years or more and still have no degree. Professor in the Health Administration are ineffective to teach based on the limited knowledge that they have in administration and subject students to nursing classes that are irrelevant to their field of study, without the students permission.
Overall 1.1
The professor, in the Health Administration Department are Nurses who are trying to teach Health Administrators information that is for nurses students. The financial aid department does not offer students work study nor do they release financial aid when school starts. The students must wait until the middle of the semester to receive their money.

Langston University is a good school, but to be honest it can be WAY better. From the nasty food that is the same every week to the bad location Langston has tons of terrible qualities it need to change before it can be the great school i know it is capable of being.
