What Students Are Saying
When visiting Keiser University's Lakeland campus i was very pleased with the way the advisors and faculty treated each other and guests. The main priority on this campus is to make sure you accomplish your career goals and not be distracted by anything else. Immediately when I sat down with the advisor all questions were answered, and never lost communication with advisor through admissions process.STRONGLY RECOMMEND.....

Keiser University is an accelerated college. Be ready to study hard and take a mid-term, quizzes, post test, and final in one month. It is very rewarding though knowing you will be finished in sixteen months, rather than twenty-four months. I'll be working and making an income while the college down the street is still in class.
