What Students Are Saying

the size of the classes is about the same as in high school, so it is easier to get to know professors. all the professors i have had are very helpful for students to be as successful as they can potentially be.

The classes are tough, but passable if you do the work and do not spend all your time goofing off. Studying is the key and so is attending office hours if you are struggling.

The classes at Duquesne are difficult. Each class I have taken so far has been rigorous. Although, with that being said the Professors want you to succeed. Every Professor I have had, has been more than willing to help me. Their aid has been a great tool so far in my studies. I can not imagine being where I am today without them.
I did not realize that most college Professors are not like this. I just assumed that because Duquesne's professors are like this, that it is the custom across the nation. That is not the case. Many of my friends from various other PA schools have told me that I 'lucked out here at Duquesne.

Definitely challenging every single class.
