love it here
Overall 4.3
I really enjoy this campus. I love being away from all the chaos from the city.Like everyone has said there is not much to do around here. Most teacher are great but you do get those few that don't know how to teach or work with students. The staff & clubs try to get people involved with everyone. Yes most of the time it's chessy and they are fun.

It's actually not as boring as people think.

All this school cares about is money and the professors do not teach well

If you want to pursue your career in nursing then this school is not the school to go to. The nursing program at this school is horrendous. I seriously do not know how the nursing program at this school has been opened for 25 years.. 25 years and the program is still a disaster.
Overall 1.2
LMU has an opportunity to be a great school if the teachers actually knew how to teach. They need to hire better teachers. A community college is way better than this school, I have never been this unhappy and depressed at a school. The faculty here does not care about their students. You are better off at a community college.

The nursing program is unorganized and they have unreachable expectations. Save your money and go to a better school with a better nursing program. It’ll be cheaper at any other school
Overall 1.4
The tuition at this school is expensive and overly priced and the education you receive does NOT reflect what you are paying for.
Overall 1.4
The school is beautiful with beautiful scenery but tuition is so expensive for students not to get the proper education and the help that they need in order to succeed. The professors do not care about helping their students.
Overall 1.4
If you are interested in nursing do not come to this school. The program is not organized and the teachers don’t teach well and the program has unrealistic and unreachable expectations.
Overall 1.4
Really cant't see why anyone would attend college here when there are so many more competive schools with more to offer and certainly more caring and worthwhile professors.
Overall 1.8
This campus is in the middle of nowhere and all this school cares about is money. They only take cash for everything which is sketchy. The nursing program is a scam, the teacher do not teach well and they never show you your test after it’s been graded,they just tell you what you got on the test but they never show your test

This school is like WASP central. They've stripped the campus of all of its trees until it looks bald. The people who like it here must be high ALL of the time (not just sometimes) or involved in church organizations, or both. So if those don't apply to you, please, for your sake, go somewhere else.
