    Am learning a lot

    Yes! Programs are for specific courses not loaded with extra- general classes.

    Am enjoying being here

    Yes! I work so I do not spend much time here unless I have a class but it works out well for me.

    Bang for the buck

    Good to get the degree and get out to work...why spend 2-3 more years in classes?

    Great for these types of students

    Everyone- flexible for all ages and schedules.

    It's beautiful, cultural, and new! I'm excited to be attending there in the fall, because I fell in love when I went on the tour. Also, it's surrounded by active students.

    Tips for prospective students

    I recommend it for anyone who has financial problems because it is half the price of a four year college.

    Academic Rigor

    I will be trying out for the volleyball team in August, because I love the sport and I love the team support that you get.

    Dorm Life

    I will be staying in the dorms and have three other roommates. I've seen the dorms, and they are basically like a hotel! That is how nice they are!

    Food and Dining

    The food there is delicious and the meal plans are affordable.

    What to do for fun

    There is a local mall, you can go hiking, there's a park, tubing on the water. And plenty more exciting things for anyone!

    Bang for the buck

    I am only in high school right now, but i've toured and loved it. So I recommend it to anyone interested!

    Campus Safety

    If someone is harmed, there is always someone who is there to help and get the official information!

    Tips for prospective students

    study hard, don't be afraid to ask questions, and always try your best!

    Academic Rigor

    Dorm Life

    i do not live in the dorms, but from what i can see, the dorm life is pretty sweet!

    Food and Dining

    the food is good, however it is slightly more expensive than other surrounding establishments.

    What to do for fun

    inter-murals and working out and countless other exciting things to do!

    it is a decent priced school. they have many program choices. however, the admissions councilors are disorganized and are sneaky about getting people into their programs.

    Tips for prospective students

    check, double check, and triple check on the wait list and use many different councilors in order to insure you get into your program on time.

    Academic Rigor

    the general anatomy and phisiology is one of the most rigourous around the area.

    Dorm Life

    only one dorm, outrageous rules, more horror stories about roomates than good stories.

    Food and Dining

    expensive, but lots of choices.

    What to do for fun

    mall, bowling, some college activities, downtown, river, hiking, bike riding

    Bang for the buck

    good pricing, only bad thing is the $50 credit agreement (why pay simply to hold off on paying more?)

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    nothing that i can think of

    Great for these types of students

    who want to do one of more programs but can not afford a university

    Clubs and Activities

    lots of clubs for each program and plenty of sports to choose from.

    Campus Safety

    not out too much. can call for escort at night, though. mainly just drive around and check out the parking lots for people without parking passes.
