Violent, dangerous neighborhood.Quite BrightBusiness - Management and Administration
Violent, dangerous neighborhood.
Topeka has let their police department go un-funded and un-staffed, and it is not safe to leave campus or live off campus. Even in day-time, this neighborhood is now officiallly gang-land. Do not come here if you want to be safe.

Question
WU is a small urban school.AverageAccounting
WU is a small urban school. People from out of state have never heard of it. The classes are so easy as they are almost a joke. Many of these professors do not possess a PhD. Many of the students were brain dead (red-necks) even with low scores of ACT and SAT. WU accept almost every high school students just for extra cash they can get. The city, Topeka really sucks, full of bullies, red-necks and drunkers. I should have gone someplace else right after I finished my Associate degree. Although the tuition does not cost very much, but they grounded me for another year because of the problem of credit transferation, which cost me more than I should have paid.

Question
This school sucks.AverageMath
This school sucks. They do not accept any credits from any other colleges you previously earned. You have to have retake some of the courses, which means they want your money!! Money is the big issue for this school since it is a private school. It just got promoted as school that is funded by the city of Topeka. Anyway, this school does not care about your education quality, what they care is your financial background!
