    Pros: Friendly, helpful, professional professors. Small class sizes. A lot of scholarships are awarded. Cons: Food & eating establishments, Parking (there is no student lot), no usable swimming pool. I would say that if I were to come to this school in ten years, then hopefully I would be able to utilize the new academic village that they have in store for their campus and downtown. As of right now, I feel somewhat slighted for the money that I am paying.

    Point Park really is a great school that focuses on making the students feel welcome and comfortable with where they are going to be spending their next years. The student advisers work with you in order to make sure you are getting all of the necessary help that you require.

    While tuition make look bad, there are plenty of scholarship opportunities to apply for within the school. I saved over half just with mine. Considering the experience I got here, it was well worth it.
