It markets itself as a progressive university that wants to help change the world for the betterment of humanity. However, in their eyes, this can only happen through a Puritanical Vedic Lifestyle and belief system, and by teaching and becoming part of their religious group. Although many of their values are relatively universal, they provide them in a limited fashion that either cost large sums of money for information that has been in the public domain for ages. I would be very aware and cautious when attending this university. Ask students opinions, network, make sure that your degree program is worth while here. Make sure that you are fully aware of why you plan to attend MUM and what that entails.I would highly recommend looking into other universities for any degree program minus "Maharishi Vedic Science" bachelors and MS and PhD programs.

Twenty-two out of 25 dropped out of one program. Students talked constantly in class and the teachers and administration did nothing to keep order in the class, even after my constant pleading for order. The faculty had some fear that they would lose students if they asked them to pay attention and not distract others. The distractions in class were overwhelming, and I learned nothing. They blamed me for the problem, saying I was too sensitive, that I was, in TM-talk, "unstressing" (a TM way of saying you are emotionally disturbed). They told me my job as an adult was to close my eyes and not mind the distractions, in other words, my job was to baby-sit -- for $30,000 per year. The programs for education did not live up to their promises. A student was murdered by another student due to faculty negligence and two lawsuits are now pending for that murder. Finally, they retaliated against my filed complaints by giving negative comments to potential employers -- a flagrant violation of the law. Any retaliation to a student for official complaints is illegal, but they did it anyway. The university was founded by Maharishi to be a great school, but the faculty and administration have failed to live up to Maharishi's standards. I stayed in the school because I was promised an advanced program, but upon graduation, it was dissolved. It was the worst time of my life. This is not a school; it is a day-care center.

It's more like a close minded, mildly fanatic, paradigm pushing community that uses the concept of a university to mask its true nature and draw in new followers. I loved all of the young people but the faculty and administration were way more interested in getting the students to embrace the philosophy of transcendental meditation and SCI instead of paying attention to the quality of student life and education. I recommend asking a lot of questions about the curriculum before you attend and make sure to visit.On a positive note, the sustainable living program at MUM is AWESOME!...but thats about it.
