Xavier is an awesome school. I transferred and haven't regretted a thing. I do feel it's more focused on science degrees than anything, but don't be discouraged. This is an awesome school and you will love it here! Best decision I ever made!

Xavier is one big family. If you're not enjoying yourself it's because you're isolating yourself and don't want to. Everything in life is about what you make of it. If you have a negative attitude, you'll get negative results. The school is filled with ambitious people that ,otiavte you to be the best you can be. I couldn't have chosen a better sc

So glad i chose this institution!!! I love it and the fact that it is an HBCU is a plus! The pre-med office is soooooo freaking amazing if you come to Xavier and go to the pre-med meetings and do what Ms. QV tells you to do, you will definately get into med school with out a doubt!

I enjoyed my overall experience at Xavier. It definitely prepared me for the remainder of my schooling. In fact it over prepared me for many programs in the future leaving me to function as a “tutor” in majority of my classes. The social scene wasn’t what I expected but in regards to education it did it’s job!

The faculty is very rude and abrasive. Especially fiscal service department. They do not know what they are doing and if they weren't so busy with having attitudes maybe they would be better at their jobs. The police on campus are terrible and will pepper spray the students with no remorse and they victim blame rather than solving the crime.
