    It wouldn't hurt to lower the cost of education just a little bit. Every school has its flaws but I can honestly say that the cost to attend Cookman doesn't make up for its worn out dorms, its nasty same day food, and its door to door parking lots. So many people have the potential to go to Bethune Cookman but they don't have the money for it. That's why I'm on Cappex. I need to get some help for paying my tuition. If i don't receive any help for the up coming school year, i will be stuck at home at a community college, which there is nothing wrong with that but i will truly be hurt to not return to Cookman. At Cookman, i feel like you are only paying for your education and nothing else. The education that you receive is worth $20,000 (give or take) but every thing else.......no comment! read full review

    I am really enjoying my experience there. The campus life is awesome. The students interact well with each other and there is always something going on if you ever get bored or need something to do. There are also lots of Greek organizations that you can join to keep you occupied. the one thing that I can say is great about the campus is that it is right down the street from the beach which is something that lots of student enjoy a lot. If you enjoy learning and having fun at the same time Bethune Cookman University is the school for you. read full review
