The AIM and Accounting programs at Marquette are as good or better than any school in the country. My professors were available all the time; the alumni network was first-class. My schoolwork was applied, so I am ready for my job, and I had three great job offers. I played intramurals, met the girl of my dreams, and loved every minuter here.

Marquette truly provides so many opportunities for their students. There are so many clubs to join or intramurals. Plus a lot of people get internships and research opportunities as early as their freshman year--which is truly crazy for any university. All of the tour guides are insanely personable and the alumni connections are great. I love MU!

I could not be prouder to be from Marquette. I build friendships that will last my lifetime. I found love. On the job I feel better prepared than friends and co-workers from other schools. I had 3 job offers. I had the most amazing professors who were always there for me. It is an amazing place.

When getting forms signs or getting anything done to transfer schools or get help no one is understanding. There are many shootings around campus. Staff doesn’t teach the best or take the time yo teach students what they aren’t strong on.

I mean, yeah, I guess it was fun sometimes. If I could go back to my Junior year of high school to choose a college again, I would not have gone here. They tore down McCormick, the only redeeming quality of the school. I made a lot of friends and had some good times here, but it is not worth $250,000. I don't know how this school will survive.

Transferring because its extremely unsafe, boring, and unhelpful. The academics are good for the most part but the campus and the school spirit sucks.

I've watched this school go downhill over the past 4 yrs. It has discarded it's Jesuit values for those of progress, and crime has increased sharply. One of the dorms had a bullet go through a window last week. The food is terrible, servers act like they're doing you a favor giving you ration sized portions. Education reminds me of my high school.
