The food is hit or miss. The internet can be extremely frustrating on-campus at times, but it is generally functional. Otherwise, everything is great.

Not a real college experience. Save your money and go elsewhere.

If you are reading this, please do not look up anything more about Mount Aloysius and take it off of your list of applications. You will thank me later. Trust me, I have had too much pain, and struggle with my super expensive nursing education here. The college is not worthy enough to be part of your education.

The mount is great school for commuters. Living on campus is terrible. I lived on campus for a year and I was bored to tears. Nothing to do, horrible internet connections, awful food. Small group of people on campus so not a lot of friends to choose from. However, it is a good place to get your education. Great teachers, but overpriced.

I hate this school. I feel like the people who teach nursing dont want me there.

I would never recommend the nursing program. I am an A student and have been in every level but, the program is disorganized and you WILL need to teach yourself. They do not care about students' concerns. If 75% of the class fails an exam, it will never have to do with how an instructor taught, it will always be that ALL of the students are lazy.

Nursing here is a joke. Its unorganized. Unprofessional. Absolutely horrible. They give points back on exams for students THEY FAVOR. If the whole class fails an exam, its NEVER the teacher or test. Its always the students faults. Its too overpriced for garbage grade education. If you try to voice concerns, they dont listen and turn the cheek

I don't think the money you pay is worth what you're getting. some of the class rooms are out dated. Theres not a thing to do in the town, campus is very boring, nothing exciting is ever going on. If I had to do it all over again, I would have saved a lot of money, and actually went to a school that was worth it.

Expensive and not worth it. Applying for jobs and mentioning you graduated from there people don't know what to make of it. Should have gone to Penn State.

If you're thinking about going here for nursing,DONT DO IT! Yes you may have been accepted where other schools haven't, but it's not worth it. They accept 100-120 people per semester and each semester they weed out 50% of you so in 2 years there's only 20-30 people that graduate. Please read this and go somewhere else
