I love how small the campus is, the occupational therapy program is incredible. Professors are there to help you improve and treat you as a future colleague. They listen and make changes to any concerns you have and make the program very personal.

If possible, stay away from this tiny below-average school. From admin to faculty, from campus to web, almost everything has very low quality. You cannot even withdraw a course on its online registration system without their approval.
Overall 1.1
I am an outstanding student but the chaos at this school was simply too stressful. I earned a BSN and got a job because I was in the top 2% of the class but I had to spend several years secretly taking classes (contact CEUs that I paid for) to catch up with my peers at work. I strongly advise against this school for nursing.
Overall 1.2
I have protected my anonymity with this answer. No pictures - to provide a basic sense of encouragement. Constant staff turnover all the time - 4 times in two semesters for major academic positions Baby sitting of administrative procedures that I have never had to do with other schools, despite performing top of the class compared to most.
Overall 1.6
Be very careful the school is sheer chaos especially the dept of NSF
