Not so bright
I applied to hunter as an undergraduate, and still haven't received any answer back. So have my other friends as well. All of our papers are in, and we still have not heard back. What a waste of an application. They are poorly organized and should take their applicants more seriously.

I've been in Hunter for a year and although not a long time, I feel as if I won't be enjoying the rest of my time here. I came acknowledging the negative comments on this site and tried my best to defy them. I tried to join groups, I tried to be social in public areas, I tried to maintain communications with advisors, etc. For the most part, my effort failed. Most students have their own cliques and sometimes you just get that stare or feeling that you don't belong. It's pretty hard to make friends here if you are not social or if you didn't come in with a group of friends or people you know. Most students keep to themselves and seem to be miserable as well.

Hunter needs to stop over-registering students, needs more funding, and needs to just clean up their act if they want to be seen as a prestigious and competitive albeit affordable school.

I have been a student/employee at Hunter since sept. 2004. I know the school VERY well. Administration is horrible, they have too many students (they are taking in many admissions to fill spots and make money but can't really accommodate them). Some faculty are great, but a lot of the new faculty members are adjuncts/grad-students. I have a AAS in Nursing from another college and had contemplated getting my BSN from Hunter. I got into their program which is competitive to get into because it's cheap. They have a severe influx of applicants due to the cheap price of tuition and the nursing craze. Their nursing department is HORRIBLE. I went through a horrible ordeal with them. It took many complaints to finally speak to someone about an issue. Even then, the issue was not resolved the way it should have been. I decided to apply to a private university, with which I am extremely pleased with. The program does not care about its students. Hunter's nursing department has a good reputation, but they are not helpful nor are they considerate about the well-being of their students. If you have questions, you will get the bare-minimum as a response, if any response at all. Also, their advisement is inaccurate. I have gotten the wrong information about curriculum, coursework and expected graduation date. Several other students I've met have said the same, including a friend of mine who is in Hunter's RN-BSN program this semester. She will not be able to graduate the semester she was told she would because the school does not offer , or have enough sections, of the classes she was advised to take (there's a certain course-sequence that has to be followed).

This College has really made me hate school. The professorial staff is ok but the administrative staff is the worst i have ever seen. It is a big mess that seems to be run by 8 year olds. No one is friendly or helpful. There are so many unnecessary prere. courses, it seems like the school is designed for failure. I hate it here I hope that I have the chance to leave soon.
