Overall, wonderful institution that provides a lot for students. With the opening of the new medical education building, this further enhances this great institution.
Bad reviews
Overall 1
I am really shocked that the US government is allowing such people to control future of students, School is relying on bringing students from poor countries, graduate programs would be opened, professors get paid more. While poor students are horribly discriminated and when someone would dare to complain h/she would be kicked out, How shameful!!!!!
