What Students Are Saying

The professors challenge and inspire you-but they are also there to help! Do not be afraid to ask questions and visit them during their office hours.
Elizabeth from Centreville, VA
cnu's academics challenges its students. however, the professors are very understanding when it comes to extra curricular activities so the work load is pretty manageable.
Cindy from Virginia Beach, VA
They're really serious about the liberal learning core, but I've heard exploring all the different areas keeps you sane in the midst of stressing about your major. If you're in Honors, you don't have to deal with the liberal learning curriculum, keep that in mind.
