Students talk about this school
Good reviews
Overall 4.4
The students here are very diverse and just plain interesting. The profs are available for one-on-one conversations in their offices. Most classes have writing assignments. I'm learning a lot and have had a good internship. No complaints except the petty ones that everyone has about parking spaces. It's a great place

Amazing place. Great facilities, nice professors. My one problem with the place is that the president is a big dodgers fan.

If you want big this is not the place. Manchester is very small. However, faculty are being fired, food is horrible the hours are absolutely the worst. Not many clubs to join, no greek life. Not much to do at all. Safety is great! Teachers and faculty were hands down the best part, I never had a problem with any! I will be transferring in the fall.
