Great school for working adults. Tons of online options and tuition is reasonable.
Bad reviews
Overall 0.9
Rose Hightower and Barbara Beltrand are the worst teachers and when you go to the Dean of Students, they just side with them rather than doing something about the quality of teaching.

This school could do a lot more to improve there overall services, features, and programs. The services are here but staff are usually clueless. Or the program is not strong enough. Same goes for the student organizations.
