Quite Bright
This school is idiotic. Most of the professors here (excluding the humanities department) is so into themselves, getting any real assistance is impossible. The schools aims to give poor marks, and actually seems to go out of their way (exceedingly large class sizes) to ensure low marks. The school tries to be entirely online and "paperless," but they can't figure out how to keep the internet and blackboard from crashing. Unless you are hellbent on becoming a pharmacist, do not go to this school. You'd be better off going to pharm. grad school if you want to have fun in college and not be around a bunch of moderately intellegent, self-conscious students who feel insecure enough to make everyone's life miserable. Not to mention, there's nothing to do here.

Strictly speaking, ACP is not a real college. Even compared to a community college, it has fewer resources for students to access and yet it charges a student more than $30,000 per year (if boarding is included). There are few good professors in this school. Most of the instructors teaching pharmacy courses are newly graduates from ACP itself and are inexperienced. And yet, some of them act as if they were Ph.D. from an Ivy League university. So you basically have to rely on yourself to learn those difficult subjects. Considering the tremendous workload of pharmacy major, this is not an easy job however. Therefore, many students left for other better pharmacy schools after one or two semesters. Even those who stayed, I know lots of them (more than a half)just hate this school. So don't come to ACP unless you are rejected by all the other pharmacy schools you apply to. Even so, it would be worthwhile to wait one more year to re-apply to those pharmacy schools that previously rejected you. I would probably only suggest my worst enemies apply to ACP.

This school is not too good right now. The teachers are being force to be tougher (give lower grades) because the faculty feels that they are too easy on the students. The food at this college is not something I would buy. The price is high and the food taste horrible. I would rather eat at McDonalds before buying food at the Cafe here. It's a small school so there aren't many clubs/sports/activities to attend. It's pretty much a boring college. Students can only find fun by drinking at the bar. Overall rating of this school should be a D.
