    Tips for prospective students

    Take it from a 46 year old. Don't wait Get you education. It is so important. My life would have been a whole lot easier if I didn't wait. So go for it no matter what!
    Am learning a lot

    I have had many shortcomings in my pursuit for education. The traditional classroom is just not my thing. I was not to sure about the internet education but I gave it a shot. Unbelievable, a door has been opened for me through the Internet. I have enjoyed the first half of my freshman year so very much. It has opened up a new world for me in obtaining my education. The confidence I have now is amazing. I am in Post University for psychology. I enjoy school so much I believe that I can continue to get a Master's degree.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    i''m an online student, but i think it's unusual that the teaching is set up to be like an open discussion between students and the teacher. i do my reading and research until i find i understand and then i show my understandings through my posts on the topic's thread. i find this way of learning very effective for me.
    Bang for the buck

    my financial advisors and tuition planners are very helpful in helping me find financial aid for my classes. i would be lost without them.

    if you ever feel unsafe, all you have to do is let someone know and use common sense when walking on campus. never go anywhere at night alone, carry a cell phone at all times, and know where the call boxes are.

    this school is really there for you, they make sure you have all the support necessary for success. if there is something you are unsure or nervous about just give one of the team members a call and they will either work it out with you or make sure to find the person who can work it out with you. if you have any kind of a question just ask.

    Post University is great for adult students or anyone that needs to work full time and work school around your schedule.
    Bang for the buck

    So far I have taken 7 courses with Post and they have been worth every penny. I would not be able to attend a traditional on campus school, so Post University allows me earn a degree within the confines of my schedule.

    Academic Rigor

    The courses are tough as the time constraints are rigorous, but students can accomplish a lot in a short period of time.
    Tips for prospective students

    Go to Post's website www.post.edu to take a virtual tour and contact the admissions office for information. Each course is set up in 8 week sessions so be prepared to work, but it is the best way to take as many courses as possible throughout the academic year.
    In three sentences

    Post University's accelerated online program is a great fit for working professionals. The professors and virtual classroom provide a great education while granting the flexibility needed for students with an otherwise busy schedule.

    The great thing about our campus is the gym is literally down the campus. Theres a private stairway the students go through if they want to go to the gym. Theres also a gas station, and food places.
    What to do for fun

    there's many things to do for fun on campus. Every season we have a school dance, and a big event on the school lawn. We get games, djs, photobooth, and free clothes and other stuff. Almost every week throughout the yr in leever lawn hall, the RH try there best to get special visits to come to our school, inspirational speakers. There is so much to do, its impossible to be bored on campus.
    Food and Dining

    The food at the school is great, especially during lunch. At lunch, we get a chef to make us our food how we like it, in front of us. That's how we know its freshly made. However, there are some days where the food can be better, only because i miss my mothers food sometimes.
    Dorm Life

    The dorm life on campus is wonderful! They have been remodeling every hall making it more comfortable for the students who live on campus. Its a small campus, so its easy to walk from west hall to Ohall. However, ohall is one of the best halls on campus. Which is where i plan on living this upcoming year.
    Academic Rigor

    On this campus, the academics are increasing each year! This past year there was a greenhouse that was built on our campus. Helping the environmental and biology majors have more of an understanding of the course.

    For any student, I would recommend this campus for anyone! Even though its expensive, the education is very well and focusing. There's not much around the campus, which also makes it easier to concentrate more on our education.
    In three sentences

    Its a small campus so its easier to communicate if you need help for your classes. Everyone on campus is very friendly and help you with anything you need. it also has my major, biology. Within the major, there are many teachers that have extended their hours just so they can help students like myself.

    In three sentences

    Post University is a great option if you need flexibility. I work full time and have a family so I need to have some control over my education. Post offers online, on campus, day evening and weekend classes so it is easy to fit my education into my busy life.
