It is really good as i have heard from my seniors. I have yet to experience it as I'm going to start my first semester of study in the August of 2020
Some staff members have been amazing but there are a few that have not been the best. Some were unorganized which made it difficult to keep up. My department also is unorganized so there has been misunderstandings and mishaps.
