Great for these types of students	People focused on getting a great education. Sometimes it was dificult for me to schedule night classes around my work schedule towards the end but overall I enjoyed my time there and the instructors were always willing to help me and work with my life.
What to do for fun	This isn't a college you would go to in order to get your typical college experience. This is a school for people focussed on getting an educaiton. There are fun thigns to do but most of it involves you getting involved in a club or organization.
Food and Dining	I enjoyed taking a break to study in the cafe and when I was there during the day, the cafeteria had some really good food as well.
Dorm Life	There is no campus housing available.
Academic Rigor	I learned a lot from my time here and took pride and kowing that nothing was given to me. I worked hard and earned the grades that I got.
Tips for prospective students	Don't hesitate to ask questions. In my experience, everyone here is always willing to help in the best way possible. Make sure to also check your financial aid funding. Going to a private school is a bit mroe expensive so make sure you have the funding available and doin't take out mroe than you need. You will pay heavily for it after graduation.
In three sentences	This school is great for someone needing personal attention. It is a very family environment. You will always get the help you need.

Campus Safety	You are on a seminary with a Catholic Hospital next to you. The also have campus security.
Clubs and Activities	They have all kinds of charities and community work you can do.
Great for these types of students	If you like small class rooms and one on one time with professors. I recommend Our Lady of Holy Cross.
Bang for the buck	It is a private instution so it is pricey but well worth it. You aren't just a number there. They know you by name.
