Good reviews
Overall 4.9
Overall it is a beautiful campus. Some of the nicest staff and professors out of all the colleges I've attended. Many study spaces for all different types of learners. Private study/social spaces just for commuter students with snacks and areas to eat. The school is well known in the area for its great nursing and health programs.
