Not so bright
First I will say that my first two years at snhu were fine, freshmen year was hard getting used to, but by second year, I did well and achieved being on the Dean's List. BUT! something happened along the way where I was finding that I was unhappy attending SNHU, and here is why. The program that I was majoring had almost no classes in my concentrated subject matter, I am a history major who had a goal in mind, and history is supposed to be one of the most comprehensive majors in education. Yes, the intro courses were available but that was all they had and I had completed all of them. I ended up having to take American literature and some political science classes to get the history out of it. Also when I complained about this to my academic counselor, her response to me was to take the online classes, but I am not an online student, I am in the day program.I am changing schools, and don't care if it takes me a little longer to graduate, I want a great gpa so that I can go on to a good graduate school and make something of myself. I should not have to go take other courses that are not within my major to extract what I am looking for.

Horrible advisors and most administrators were not helpful at all. Much of the staff were very confrontational to simple requests and routine questions. Think long and hard about this place!

Warning to anyone who works full time and wants to go to SNHU!!!Going to school on a full-time work schedule can be rather difficult and SNHU did a good job to accommodate me in my first semester. However, in my second semester one of my courses requirements were completely changed with under 2 days notice from the start of the first class. It was changed in such a way that the course now required an extensive amount of mandatory community service, something I could not manage aside my work schedule. The faculty were very condescending when I e-mailed them seeking urgent assistance in this matter stating that I should have registered sooner (I registered 2 months in advance). In the end they were no help at all and even said I would lose aid if I dropped the class without adding something in its place, in my opinion this was blackmail. In the end I had to take on a late night class which will cause great strain in my life for the next 16 weeks.
