I love McMurry. The Psychology Department is full of kind, caring professors who want to see you succeed. Would recommend.
Overall 4.2
Small private school. Great chances to get one on one time with the professors. All of the professors are willing to help you and work with you when it comes to work. When it comes time for you to graduate the professors are willing to reach out for jobs for you and help you get into internships. Classes do not get really big.

DO NOT COME HERE!;unless, you are very conservative, you love jesus, you like to go to church, you are ok taking religion classes (it's mandatory), you like contry music (country all over the place). I do not recommend it for any kind of science degree.

Terrible experience
Overall 2
Its a Christian College so its not a real college in terms of the fun things you get to do in college. Good portion of people live off campus, food is absolutely terrible, class is mandatory, many teachers are former High School teachers so they take their jobs too seriously. Its not a horrible school but its not the best in the world.
