What Students Are Saying

This is a very challenging school. I am a student at the School of Nursing, and they truly expect a lot out of their students. Before attending nursing school, I was able to make A's on my exams without trying too hard. Now, I could study diligently for days, yet still make a B on an exam. The work is manageable, but the professors expect you to know everything.

I love all my professors and the coursework is doable as well as challenging. I like the grading system and easy of communication with faculty. Course work is rigorous for few challenging courses. However, most classes doesn't require much effort.
