What Patients Say
Overall sentiment across review platforms: mixed
- Niche (General Campus Reviews): not available (not available for health services specifically)
Patients praise
- supportive and intelligent faculty
- faculty understanding of student extenuating circumstances
Common complaints
- administration neglect regarding student needs
- poor communication regarding administrative processes
- difficulties with student accommodations for online learning
"The professors are wonderful, intelligent and helpful as long as you do the classwork. They are very understanding if you need extra time on an assignment because of extenuating circumstances and will do all that they can to help you succeed. The administration is awful. They are there merely to collect their paychecks and do not care if their neglect to elucidate the college system costs a student their education."
