This is the best university, bar none. The degree plans are easy to follow, the coursework enriches your knowledge, the teachers are exceptional, and your path is designed for success right from the start. They make it hard to fail. You leave knowing you've earned a quality education. And the 3+3 program designed to advance your J.D. is brilliant.

The faculty is amazing! They don't tell you how to think but rather provide factual information and let you come to a conclusion. They also really care about their students.

I love Regent and how the culture is around campus. I love the lectures and activities the campus offers. I really feel like I can be myself and openly discuss Christianity with my peers and learn together. I love this class and I love God. I love the chapels. Some people are a little weird and the campus is small, but I do call this place home.

Bad reviews

Other than three or four really awesome professors, the administration doesn't care about students. The student body is judgmental and ignorant, and the bad professors look down on students. The student government has its hands tied by the administration and basically has no responsibilities whatsoever, and there are few opportunities to network.
Overall 1.4
This University started out so well. There were opportunities for students to grow in their fields and talk to professors in order to gain a better understanding of the topics. However, this has changed slowly, but noticeably, over the past few years. The policies of the administration is to disregard student opinion in favor of unilateral decision

This place is awful. They accept everyone and graduate anyone but the degree but its worthless in the job market because their reputation as a total diploma mill is already well known. I was there but I wouldn't go anymore for free.

During the warm months you can go to the beach, when it gets cold there is nothing to do. No clubs and the people are dreadful.
Overall 1.9
I attended as an online student & have had a lot of difficulty with the staff. I feel this school expects far too much of students who generally work or have families outside of school. It is unrealistic. Also if you get financial aid, you better be prepared to do nothing else but study. You will have no social life trying to keep up with the work

Beautiful campus! Regent has a problem with their advisors, they are not very helpful, give incorrect information and they are also very difficult to relate to. Regent does not do practical and reasonable things to help graduates find jobs, you are on your own in finding employment.
Overall 2
Library is poorly designed and noisy. Shift to catering to an immature undergraduate population. Would not reccomend for the mature and serious minded individual. Perpetual administrative issues that stifle the educational experience for the student.
