It's okay, for incoming students, don't plan on bringing much for dorm rooms. If I'm Bellarmine, one kitchen in the basement. In Camp, each floor. Xavier, no idea.

If you are looking to attend this university, DONT!!! The professors are condescending, do not care about your quality of learning nor wellbeing, and simply don’t bother with teaching you material aside from reading off of powerpoints. As a senior, the changes in quality and costs of this school over merely 4 years is astounding. The tuition has been raised every single year but our resources have also been given budget cuts each year. The facilities- buildings, dormitories, bathrooms, classrooms, are all extremely dated and nonfunctional. Mold is a common issue, and heating in the winter is hard to come by. If you have any sort of mobility issues, forget about accessibility. Most elevators are broken as well as the automatic door openers. The credits earned here are not transferrable to any other institution either, so you are softlocked into completing your degree here as you have no other choice. Prospective students, look elsewhere.

I don't understand the housing rule, if you live near Campus you should be automatically exempt from campus housing, but no. You have to apply for exemption and take few weeks for housing committee to decide. What a waist of time.

Red Flags to Note: 97 percent success rate. (means they kick people out) It takes too many clicks to find the tuition (that is 55k a year) They let you sign up for some other sight to "calculate price" which is abnormal. Almost every other review here is a reflection of the school and it's quality. Note: I have not gone here, but I looked into going here. It feels like a giant trap that I bet parents push their kids into. School should cost at most 5k a year for just the learning.

If you are considering attending here full-time and on campus, PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO TO A DIFFERENT SCHOOL! This school has truly lost any and all qualities that originally drew me into picking it in the first place. Professors are extremely hit or miss- some absolutely ruin a class for you, not caring at all if you pass or not. Some do not even use the platform dedicated for all of the coursework, and are unreachable by email or take a week to respond. Throughout the entire time that I've been here, they have raised tuition every year, and by 8.44% in the past 2 years alone. There are continuous budget cuts in every department and club, and lowered student meal plans by over $200 per quarter. Facilities are often left broken for weeks without repair, even ones that are necessary for physical accessibility. If you have housing accommodations or need to be in contact with their department for any reason, forget it. They will string you around and redirect you back and forth until you give up. The financial aid department is also notorious for not giving a damn about any students' financial hardships, even allowing some to drop out because they were a couple hundred short for that quarter. They tried and failed to cover up the major flooding in the Murphy apartments due to faulty water pipes/insulation. Students that were relocated for almost 3 months were given extra MEAL PLAN allowance that wasn't even usable since it expires at the end of every quarter. The on-campus security is just decorative at this point, there are a bunch of homeless people that loiter around campus and even harass students sometimes. The only parking garage has carjackings every month, it is entirely open without any regulation or security managing it. But do feel free to attend this school if you don't care about the following: price, safety, campus life, visibility, internet access, professors, dining options, facilities, or education quality.
