A racist and discriminatory organization made to protect the white and the rich. Straight up. If I had money, I would sue them and continue trial.

University is the biggest scam Ive ever witnessed. Doesn’t matter your experience or your perfect GPA or even who you get your references from. At the end of the day you give them your hard earned money for an application they put your name in a hat and whoever's name comes out wins.

This university is disappointing, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. The administration and policies are frustrating, and their slogan, “Inspiring Lives,” feels more like “Ruining Lives.” Be aware that they issue tickets for the most unreasonable reasons. Overall, I strongly advise against attending this institution.

Not surprised that there are some negative reviews here. I had a great time but I can understand why. We all know what it's like. I took a dump the size of a full grown sturgeon in the parking lot one time. It had something to do with my lunch previously and some new medication I had been trying out. I'm pretty sure it was in a secretive enough area, so the roaches and maggots likely got to it before landscaping did. From my perspective, the school was good. I get it though. 5 stars.

Very disappointing experience in Faculty of Business Administration. No support system in place if you need help in a course. Professors have little to no office hours, and only 1 question is allowed. Trying to get a 10 min time slot is harder than getting tickets to a Taylor Swift show. No TA's, so no help there. Most exams are multiple choice to make grading easier for profs. Some professors are unintelligible in class, with their thick accents, leaving students to try to sneak into other profs' classes, to actually learn something, but usually you end up trying to teach yourself the course material using YouTube, because the good profs catch on, and only allow students who are registered to attend their classes. This, coming from a student with European relatives, who is well-versed in understanding accents! How disappointing, and frustrating, for students who truly want to learn. Seeking help from Student Services is met with, 'well ask your prof', or, 'contact Tutoring'. Well I've emailed Tutoring three times since January, and still no response. What a horrible choice I made, coming here. Just trying to decide whether to suffer through 'til the end, or to transfer to a different school. I work hard, study, and have always been a top student. I'm not the only one in my year feeling this way. Truly disappointed. Go somewhere else, if you want a rewarding experience, where you actually learn and grow.
