Career-focused university
Great staff and curriculum. It's definitely a school that focuses on education and career pathing. The resources including student services and library services are always available and high quality.
Overpriced but solid
Good school overall but overpriced slightly. The faculty is the best characteristic. Lots of professors with useful backgrounds and knowledge. There is no sports or social event type of activity. It is purely a school for obtaining academics.
A Good Starting Point
Not an actual campus so no clubs or social groups. They try to have events throughout the week. Small classrooms so everyone knows each other and you will be with the same group of people until you graduate. Since it's graduate school it can be stressful and staff here don't always prepare you for everything.
