    The school is expensive but it was easy to find a great work study job which helps a bit. If you work to your fullest potential you'll find that Canisius is worth every penny.

    It is worth looking into, but depending on your major this school may not be for you. If you are interested in accounting, this is the 4th best school in the country. If not? They still drill this useless knowledge down your throat.. what about the non-existent fashion department..

    I do believe that I got a top of the line education at Canisius, however I do not believe that any education is worth the amount of money that I now owe. With the way the economy is, it is very hard to find a job immediately after graduating, yet you have loans to start to pay off. I do not know if I would go to Canisius again if I had the choice, just because I am unable to start my life because of how much I am paying in loans.

    Private School education that you will very rarely pay top dollar for, they want you to be able to afford everything.
