DO NOT GO HERE. It is one of the worse mistakes I have ever made coming to this school. Academically there is a bunch of idiots that got in here bc the school was going under, I met someone who didn't finish high school and is taking classes here. The classes are mid at best.

I am miserable here. If you have a choice, please look at online or out of state programs. Once you are in a program, you have the inability to transfer. I really wish I did not come to this school.

This is a horrible school. Going through the program has been the worse experience I have ever had in a University. Unprofessional, no clue, no empathy, and very spotty. If you make a statement they will say you are being unprofessional or expect you to apologize. Look elsewhere if you can. This place is over priced.
