This school is awful. Please listen to the other reviews. All this school cares about is money. They care nothing about the students!

THE MOST IMPORTANT REVIEW YOU WILL EVER READ... DO DON'T PASS THIS ONE!
I attended Bay State College for 1 year 2007-2008. I went for medical assisting, the woman who ran my program, Laura.. was an amazing woman, she was a great teacher and such a kind person. I hope she has moved on from that place.

I was supposed to live in the substance free dorm, I requested a low floor so that when my father (who was terminally ill) could easily come visit me without hassle. I was assigned to the 3rd floor (okay stuff happens I guess) on move in day I found out I was switched out of substance free onto the 5th floor... because my hispanic room mate didnt want to be roommates with a white girl. yyyeeeaaah that makes sense!

but it gets worse... On the first day of moving in I was talking to the 2 idiot guys in the dorm room next to me and I explained how I get panic attacks around marijuana and they said it was cool they dont do it much and if they do it will be outside. needless to say they did it the next night in our shared bathroom. I confronted them. After the next time they did it when I smelled it in my room, I told the building advisor... she friggin told me that its okay because one of the kids best friends moved in and is the new RA and she would keep him in line... what kind of crap is that?!?!?!?! She said maybe we can work out a system that if I smell it I can knock on her door and let her know... yeah thats what I want to do at 2 am!

I ended up talking to the Dean and THEY SAID THE SAME THING.
I had to leave my dorm that I now owe thousands on because the staff legitimately does not care about anything.

Also, the students who go to Bay State are honestly no better than middle school children. They are so stuck up and rude it's insane, they really act like they are 12. They are all rich snobs, and that is 100% truth.

Again,The medical assisting program was fantastic I learned so much. If you are commuting then I would recommend this program... but please avoid the dorms at all costs.Please don't let this college draw you in because, although it is in the beautiful Back Bay area, it MUST be the worst excuse for a college in Massachusetts.

DO NOT GO HERE! Hi I am a first year student and I live in the dorms. Most of the girls who live in my building are stuck up bitches who slam their feet down the stairs at 4am but there are a couple nice ones A COUPLE. the boys here think there god but their NASTY.. i mean NASTY. haha the location of the school is amazing but thats the only thing keeping me going there. The work is very easy but not one of my teachers even knew my name after an ENTIRE semester... like really? not that hard to remember. There is absoultly NO campus life. Never anything to do ever! the food SUCKS it makes my stomach hurt and most schools have like a bistro or another choice for food but nope only one tiny TINY room with crap food. You have to pay money to wash your clothes and theress only 2 washers and 2 dryers. you're only allowed to have 2 guests at a time and during the first two weeks and last two weeks of each semester your not allowed any over night guests!? uhm are we 3????! oh yeah NO COLORED INK anywhere on campus but teachers expect you to have colored photos and you WILL get marked down on projects if you dont. I look forward to leaving this hell hole any chance I get!Plus every time i enter the student sitting area there is immautre kids dancing/yelling/being really annoying. Students here dont care about school most of them seem like they barly graduated high school. SCHOOLS A JOKE. DO NOT GO HERE YOU WILL REGRET IT FIND A NICER SCHOOL IN BOSTON!!!!!!!!
