    Great for business and culinary students serious about becoming and achieving more than what they've ever expected.
    Tips for prospective students

    1. Stay active: Join clubs and organizations. Build relationships with the friends, staff, professors, and any other person that you may come across. Networking is extremely important. Joining clubs/organizations help put you in the right position to establish those relationships. 2. Professional dress: Not too many people are aware of the dress code policy before they come to Johson & Wales. This university has a professional dress policy enforced, but it's extremely helpful because we often have business executives visit the school and it's better to introduce yourself to the CEO of Sports Illustrated wearing a suit and tie, than to be wearing your Spiderman pajamas and monster feet slippers.
    Bang for the buck

    Johnson & Wales is extremely expensive, and tuition goes up a little over $1,000 each year, but a majority of the money is returned to the students in the form of scholarships. Although it's expensive, it's worth it. Not too long ago, my retailing class had the opportunity to tour Perry Ellis International's Florida head quarters, as freshmen.
    Am enjoying being here

    I'm not going to lie, the campus life is a little slow, and sometimes feels like high school because it's so small. But I assure you that, you'll learn and gain more from a smaller class setting. Even though campus life is slow, my friends and I still find ways to have fun and enjoy the Miami weather.
    Am learning a lot

    Here at Johnson & Wales, you're learning stuff that you're actually going to be using in your industry. You get frist hand experience and the teaching staff is amazing. I've heard that some of the professors are a little difficult to work with, but I haven't had any bad experiences with any of mine so far. Either way, these professors know what they're doing, and no matter what the experience, you're going to come out knowing a lot more than what you came in with.

    If education is your primary objective, you need to be at Johnson & Wales University. This school allows you to learn as much information of a big university but there classes are smaller, which allows student to receive the one-on-one help. I have learn so much since the couple of months being here. I now know how to communicate with others on a buiness level.

    Great for these types of students

    Johnson & Wales is great for the types of students who never give up. Students that know when it is time for break after all the hard work. This college is also great for students who prefer a small campus and small classes.
    Tips for prospective students

    Prospective students must come ready to give their all. Do not slack off or waste time. Teachers can tell the difference between students who are their to work hard and those that do not care and they will not put any effort into the slackers. Also try to come financially prepared. Make sure that everything is set in that area as well as anything that hinder a great experience.
    Bang for the buck

    The college is costly but you get what you pay for. As a Culinary student, my labs are long and it can be overwhelming at times, but chefs and professors go out of their ways to help each individual student. They are extremely helpful and answer any questions you may have. They constantly remind you what you are paying for and make sure that you get your moneys worth.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoying being at Johnson & Wales because there are always activities taking place that one can participate in. If there isnt something on campus, they will let you know about activities taking place off campus. Sometimes things can be hard to find out though.
    Am learning a lot

    I am honestly learning a lot here at Johnson & Wales. North Miami is a small campus, therefore the classes are smaller. This allows for more one on one time with your professors. There is tutouring available to everyone. This college does not hold your hand but it does not leave you hanging with out any help. You can learn a lot from the way things are run at this college.

    At Johnson & Wales they break down the class information so that it is easy to understand. They spell out everything clearly for you without actually doing it for you. Teachers are very nice, I have never met a rude person here yet. Classes are small and organized. You start out with classes in your major mixed in with academics unlike other colleges.

    If you are looking for a school that is going to get you started with your major right when you step on campus JWU is the school for you. I am a freshman going in to being a sophomore and I have already taken class that I need towards my final degree. Also they give you hands on experience that can help you in the long run. It is a great school to attend.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you are planning to go to Johnson & Wales University I would encourage that you join many clubs and organization to get involved with student life. I am apart of a few clubs on campus and it has been a great tool to network and meet new interesting people.
    Bang for the buck

    I feel like I am getting the bang for the buck I am paying for a good school with professors that are willing to help me succeed in my field, the dorms are very spacious and good to live in, and the food that they prepare is very delicious.
    Am enjoying being here

    Student life at Johnson & Wales university is a great way to interact with students. JWU is host to many different kinds of students from a wide varity of cultures and different types of people. The sudent activities board plans events that get the student involved with events such as socials, parties, and many other activities. During my time at Johnson & Wales I have met so many amazing different peolple from different cultures that have taught me alot about their native country.
    Am learning a lot

    Johnson & Wales University offers a wide varity of great professors that have been in the field they teach in. I am a fashion/business major and my professors are very knowledgable in what they are teaching me because of their past. I learn so much not only because of what I study in my books but because of the experience that my professors are giving me from their hands on lessons and experience. I make it a point to learn something new everyday I go to class and due to the interactive classes I do just that. The classes are not to big so you feel like your getting to learn all you can and get that one-on-one time with your professor.

    Amazing Culinary School- The best in my opinion! Fantastic Business School Criminal Justice is great, as well Fashion is decent but you are better off to travel to NY for fashion
    Tips for prospective students

    A major tip for prospective students would be: Make sure you become best friends with your financial aid officers. Fall in love with them, as well as, your academic advisors. Res Life is another too if you plan on living on campus. People go the extra mile when you give them the respect that they deserve in return. If you do not know much about financial aid, ASK your financial aid officers and tell them you have NO idea what the hell you are getting yourself into and you want them to lay it out for you. If it makes their lives hell, tell them to get over it; it's their job to do so. You need to learn how to take control of your own life before someone else does. You don't have to be mean to them, but you definitely need to know how to manage your finances and college is a great place to start because you will be doing a hell of a lot more when you live on your own!
    Bang for the buck

    Honestly, I have traveled and visited other culinary schools, INCLUDING The Culinary Institute of America, and I really did not find anything but people who think they are better than everyone else because of the reputation that goes with the school. It may be an amazing school, but you have to put in the effort to make your life happen for you. The same goes for Johnson and Wales University- Florida Campus, except the Chefs really do care about the students, plus the classes are smaller so that means more individualized attention from your chefs. BTW, Le Cordon Bleu is no good unless you go to the original one in France. Americans try to screw things up by mass producing and it just doesn't work... and forget all other culinary schools, quite frankly, they are not worth the time because the education is not the same and all culinary schools are expensive! $$$
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being here strictly for my schooling. The atmosphere that many students contribute to is not the healthiest but if you work hard, you rise above them quickly. You WILL gain respect for your hard work.
    Am learning a lot

    I honestly have to say that the effort you put into your work, you WILL find results! I am currently a Junior in the Food Service Management program, working towards my Bachelor's Degree. I have already done my Co-op but I have to say, it's a job that will kick off your future. My boss was extremely tough and expected more out of me than all of the other interns he had because he knows that I know what I was getting myself into. Work, and work hard. You will enjoy it so much more if you do! Make It Happen!

    Greek Life

    Greek life is small on campus. There a a few frats and sororities but the main fraternity is Kappa Sigma and the main sorority is Alpha Sigma Tau. There is no cruel hazing!
    Clubs and Activities

    There are a few clubs and activities on campus but none of them are very involved and most do not have a lot of members. If you're looking for an active on-campus social life, you may want to look into JWU's providence campus instead.
    Great for these types of students

    JWU North Miami is great for career oriented students who like a small campus setting.
    What to do for fun

    Find a good group of friends and go out! Aventura Mall is a 15-20 minute drive where you can shop or see a movie. There are many beaches within a 10-15 minute drive or you can lay-out by the campus pools. South beach (about a 20-30 minute drive) is great for shopping, food, tourist attractions, hookah bars, clubs, and more. Take a weekend trip to Disney, which is 4 hours away. The Keys are also just a couple of hours away. Google what to do in Miami and I'm sure you'll find a tourist attraction that you find appealing. Also, the school hosts trips about every other month or so at a discounted price to a water park, Disney, Universal Studios, a zoo, or an aquarium.
    Food and Dining

    There are two places to eat on campus: The Mix and The Cyber Cafe. The Cyber Cafe has pre-made sandwiches and salads as well as a few snacks and drinks including yogurt, jello, chips, granola bars, energy drinks, juice, etc. They also brew Starbucks drinks and sell muffins, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, pastries and other Starbucks food. The Mix is the cafeteria that has a sandwich station, burger station, salad station, healthy station, dessert station, soup station, and on weekdays 2 other cultural food stations. The food in The Mix looks a lot better than it tastes. However, they do have really good cookies! Also, one meal swipe gets you 1 entree, 4 sides, and 1 drink which is a good amount of food. But you better go early! It closes at 8pm on weekdays and 7:30pm on weekends. If you get the late night munchies, there is a Burger King, McDonalds, pizza place, and Dennys within walking distance and many other places within a 5 minute drive.
    Dorm Life

    All the dorms have their own bathroom (except for Flamingo, which has community showers). Many dorms also have balconies. Some upperclassmen dorms even have their own kitchen. Living in a dorm is a great way to meet new people and I recommend it! JWU is a dry campus, meaning there is no drugs or alcohol (including drug and alcohol novelties such as decorative shot glasses) allowed, regardless of being of legal age! The time-slot for choosing your room is given at random, so the chance of getting the opportunity to live where you wish is average.
    Academic Rigor

    The difficulty of courses truly depends on your major and/or professor.
    Tips for prospective students

    Don't be fooled! When visiting campus, the school seems amazing. Once on campus, the food is never as good as what they cook you for orientation and Wildcat Weekends (campus visits). Majority of the clubs they tell you about are a joke- they consist of only a few people that hardly ever meet up. When visiting, if you happen to meet a student on campus that does not get paid to give tours and talk about all the good things about the school, ask for their honest opinion. But also remember, the school is what you make of it.
    In three sentences

    JWU is an okay school depending on your major. However, the school is very small and has cliques making it seem like you are in high school all over again. The school is easy as of now and you don't get the quality of education you are paying for, but thankfully they are improving their standards and application requirements.

    What to do for fun

    in order to avoid the freshman 20, i hang out at the new gym facility a lot. i must say it's really nice. i was never a gym rat and i'm not saying i'm one now but it's nice to have a place to go. i have made a lot of new friends and it's a cool place to just hang out there.
    Food and Dining

    i am on the meal plan and have no problem finding things to eat. i was worried in the beginning that i would have problems. i'm a picky eater. however there always seems to be something that i'm interested in eating. also there are specialty places that i can go to, starbucks right on campus!

    dorm life is fun. they always seem to have something going on. during halloween the different dorms/floor competed in decorating the halls. the new gym facility opened this year and it's awesome.

    it may be expensive, but because of that everyone is respectful because we all know that we are paying to much to do something stupid.
    What to do for fun

    for fun you can do somethings with friends, something in your room, a club or activity, go to the schools personal gym, go to one of the local bars (if you like that kind of thing, don't come back wasted.) or find a place with a bit of atmosphere. parties at the minimum because we like it at least semi quite.
    Food and Dining

    you have a wide range of options usually for food. you have a choice to either eat inside, where they play music in the background and you are more likely to see people, outside in the surrounding area, they have done a great job on the plants, some you can even harvest for herbs, spices, and fruits.
    Dorm Life

    the dorms themselves are coed, but the rooms are single gender. you have a choice of about six or seven different dorms where based off of your major you can live with others of the same in your area. quite is from 10 to 10, and courtesy hours is 24/7.some dorms have a pool, and most have a kitchen of some sort, if not in your room, it is a community kitchen.
    Academic Rigor

    mostly because of the fact that the teachers are well adapted to the industry it is helpful to learn. examples; my leadership teacher was a mayor of a city, my english teacher was and still is a writer, our chefs have high reputation around the industry including the miami ice man

    great opportunities in the area for work and study. instructors are experts in what they do, weather it is the chefs or the professors, most of them were not trained for teaching but industry, so they have experience to pass on to the students. the international program allows students from any spot in the world to learn here and meet new people and cultures

    Campus Safety

    there are over 150 cameras surrounding the school as well as a 24 hour campus safety and security staff. the area surrounding the school can get pretty scary at night and there have been reported cases of robbery and the like around the campus. the best tip i can give is never walk alone at night or call the van service to take you where you need to go.
    Greek Life

    there are a few different fraternities and sororities on campus and they are very proud of their organizations. they do not have their own houses since the campus is so small but they do share a closer bond with their brothers and sisters than you will find at other universities.
    Clubs and Activities

    there is always something to do on campus. there is a campus activities board that is constantly putting together different activities. these range from movie trips to foam parties and even a homecoming dance.
    Great for these types of students

    freshmen during the weekends usually like to hang out by a pizza place nearby called mario's.
    Bang for the buck

    the campus is private and therefore tuition and other expenses are pricey. with this being said, the school has many opportunities for students to earn scholarships and get involved with programs like work study or the chance to become a room assistant that will take some of the tuition money off.
    What to do for fun

    the university is located in north miami about 10-15 minutes from the beach, 20-30 minutes from the nightlife at south beach, 10-15 minutes from aventura mall, and about 10 minutes from he shops at bal harbour. it can be a pretty pricey area so most students will travel over to the beach for the weekends or even after class. the nightlife is also very popular here from the shops, restaurants, and hookah lounges on lincoln road to the many clubs downtown. just be sure not to walk alone at night since the area isn't in the safest part of town.
    Food and Dining

    as shocking as it may sound for a mainly culinary and baking school, the food in our cafeteria ( know as the mix) is not very good. they receive all their frozen food from a company called chartwells. they're are a few days when the food can be very good but mostly the students groan at the food and play it safe with either a burger or a sandwich.
    Dorm Life

    depending on the dorm, they can be very old from back before when the school was a hospital to the brand new ones that just opened up this 2011-2012 school year. some are apartment style dorms while the others are all within the same building.
    Academic Rigor

    the chefs will push you to do your best! they expect that if you're there you are willing to do what it takes to reach your culinary or baking & pastry goals. the curriculum is very close to how a real kitchen would be.
    Tips for prospective students

    the university in very structured meaning uniforms are taken seriously, you must always be on time, and trying your absolute best is key. the pressure can be a little overwhelming at times but if you can't handle it here, out in the industry is much more expecting of you.
    In three sentences

    the chefs are all extremely well educated on the skills needed to make it in this fast paced and ever-changing business. the negative side to each class segment is that they are only nine days long so its difficult to learn everything there is to know about a topic when its your first time doing the skill. all facts considered, i feel as though i've made the right choice by attending this school and i know once i graduate i'll have the skills and knowledge that will help me succeed in all my endeavors.

    We have a department, Sudent Success that many students go for tutoring in any class or work that they need help on.

Some students just use student success as a financial tool for using over priced textbooks for free and getting that extra help without burning a hole in your pocket.

    As a student here at Johnson and Wales, its always to keep yourself involved with Campus Activities, Special Events, Career Expos and Athletics.

Getting involved with local, on campus activites and clubs, will make your experience at a diverse unversity more meaningful and unforgettable.

    The dorms are a bit small, but gives you that home feel and with different types of room set ups and styles to fit a students lifestyle.
    Academic Rigor

    The workload is varied by class, so classes are easy and others not so. Most classes do not require a formal project but instead present you with a hands on project. For example the events management class instead of taking a written test as the final, you take the knowledge that you have gained and throw an event and the grade is based on how well the event went.
    Tips for prospective students

    Being serious about college is one thing, but being mentally and physically ready for your degree or field is another and that is what Johnson and Wales prepares you for. I think Johnson and Wales gets any student ready for their profession and future to success.

    Johnson & wales university is a 4 year School that offers a hands on expierence.

It gives us students hands on class activities that relate to the outside industries that will generate into our everyday use.

    Well the school usually plans a lot of social events for the kids so that's one thing on campus. Off campus they are many others. Miami has plenty of beaches that you and your friends can go have a relaxing day. There is also a diversity in food selection; Miami has everything that you could want.
    Food and Dining

    When you first attend JWU your going to think the mix is great. After about a month you'll realize the food can get annoying and it's just better eating off campus. The sandwich station is probably the best they have to offer.
    Dorm Life

    The dorm life can be really good or really boring depending on how you make it. They have a lot of social events in the dorms for everyone to meet and greet. If you make friends in your dorm than you'll have fun. If your anti-social or don't really like the people then it will be boring.

    The work isn't as challenging once you get settled in and start focusing. You will have to put some effort into your work if you want a great grade though.

I'm loving my major (Fashion Merchandising) and my teachers all very nice, the classes are small so its more one on one time with the teacher.

    Bang for the buck

    With the chefs and the professors - you get all that you paid far. They are insightful and can teach a lot more about the subject than a standard professor. It's worth what you pay for. And it's a better quality than some of the more expensive school that offer it.
    What to do for fun

    The beach is close by and South Beach is just down the road. There is a lot of night life and a lot of pretty sites to see. There is also a lot of cuisine and what not to find, and small sort of indie things to see.
    Food and Dining

    The cafeteria is as all cafeteria food is. It kind of sucks. You just have to watch what you get, but other than, it is a hit and miss.
    Dorm Life

    The dorms are nice, ranging from the very social freshman dorms to the more laid back upperclassmen dorms. They're spread out all over campus, so getting to things can sometimes be a walk, especially to classes, but all the academic classes and everything else is all centrally located around the main building.
    Academic Rigor

    The classes that are core based are fast paced and keep students on track. It might be easy to fail them if you miss a few days, but if you keep going to class, you'll get everything that the professors teach. They are usually from the field and teach from experience as well as from the book. They are amazing at what they do.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you are coming for Culinary or Baking, be prepared to fight for your placement. Get your application in early and be proactive with the school. The kitchen labs are a dog eat dog world. You have to be competitive and make your way to the top. It's not for the weak willed.

    Yes, it may be a little pricey to attend the school, but the best thing is that a lot of the money is returned to us in the form of scholarships and grants. Also, anything that we receive during an academic year is renewable for each year that you attend the school.
    What to do for fun

    There's so much to do. It, of course, depends on the type of person that you are. The campus is conveniently located to hot spots around the county. We equally about 20 minutes away from downtown Miami, South Beach, Miami Beach, and also, the big tourist spot, Aventura. So there is plenty to get into where you won't be bored.
    Food and Dining

    Included in your tuition for resident students, it does what it's there for. I will say that it is a lot better than the meals that I had for lunch in middle and high school. Culinary and Baking students may have an advantage, but we have the variety.

    Campus Safety

    There have been incidences that have happened on campus and what the school did was hire more security guards and a shuttle runs all over campus to take students where they need to go. Since the solution I feel safer.
    Greek Life

    There is Greek Life and I know that its popular but I have not looked much into it.
    Clubs and Activities

    There are so many clubs to choose from. If there isn't a club that someone would like to join the school will be happy to create one.

    This school would be great for students who are really passionate about their major, loves the beach, and wants to go to a small school where the teacher knows you individually.

    What to do for fun

    There are MANY of fun on campus organizations. Some organizations set up discounted and expense paid trips with the school. I went to the movies for free a couple of times and theme parks in Orlando and Tampa for just $30. There are also fun dorm and school parties that go on.
    Food and Dining

    There's a variety of options to choose from. I have no complaints about the food. There are culinary students who would differ.
    Dorm Life

    There are always lots of dorm activities almost every week. Rules are enforced for the safety of everyone. I really like that there isn't a curfew, we're able to work late and go out. Quite hours have to be respected.

    The classes are challenging
