The dorms have rats running around.when i first got to the dorm it was no beds for the first three nights. we still have no cable we are connected on other people internet. The school lied about having a track in field team. This school is all about getting money. The credits here from school can not be transfer to another university. globe wants to hold you here for money they don't care about your future. how do you play a sport for them for 2years and they keep asking you to comeback and they know you cant play sports at their school no more. This school is so much about money its so sad. The dorms are in the projects. This school is trouble i wish i never would have attended this school. I never heard of a school where you take a finally and its opening book this school is to easy you don't even learn here. The teachers don't speak English. The school is under investigation for sports and the school lien about stuff with the school. the basketball team don't even have a gym they play in a rec the football team have no field you have to go from Manhattan to Brooklyn on a train to play football this school is so dumb. Its like a all boy school not that much girls. They don't give you books and you pay for them. In basketball and football have the same uniforms for years. The school try to hold you back from going to a bigger and better school. They told people they had a track team with no track and no coach. Once again your credits don't mean nothing at globe the best way to transfer here is to graduate but its still hard to transfer the dorms have roaches in them cock roaches this school don't put no money into their school the school only has 3 floors that's not even big. if i could do it all over i would go to another school. They got some bad beds that hurt your back they try to put 11 people in a dorm that only have 4 rooms smh

My experience at Globe wasn't horrible- only because I left before the bs got worse, but I still to this day can't understand how the why the schol even exists. You pay about $13,000 or so dollars a year, which is pretty cheap, but then only to walk into a bland two floor run down office building with bleak white walls, dusty floors and busted steel seats with small wooden desks. How is it that you can pay only $3,000 a semester for a city university (in-state) and you come to globe and it looks like they haven't had any funding for the school in the last ten years?

99% of the people that attend the school are guys, and they play for one of the sports teams at globe. They constantly harassed me for my phone number, asked to be my boyfriend, to take me out, have sex, and a whole bunch of other nonsense ALL THE TIME (there were literally about 3 girls in each class at maximum). But then for the other guys who didn't harass me, they were pretty nice people...Surprisingly the teachers (that I had) seemed to be pretty intelligent people. I enjoyed listening to them talk during class, but since almost everyone plays a sport at this tiny school they're either joining class almost 2 hours into it, or leaving 2 hours early. Every exam was ridiculously easy, I mean the WHOLE ROOM was cheating right in front of the professor's faces. I was sitting about 2 feet from my professor's face googling things on my phone while the people next to me asked each other what the got for each number. My math teacher gave us classwork to practice before our midterm (during that same class) and once the next hour block hit he handed out the same classwork as the actual midterm. I don't know how things could get any easier than that. It was just all to simple and stupid for me to take seriously and I just had to get out of there before my brain melted from my orifices.

Not so bright
This school is the worst mistake of my life. I left because there was no security at the run down so called dorms that was roach and mice infested. The dorm had constant leaks and had mold and mushroom growing on the walls. The location of the dorm is in a bad neighborhood next to a high school. The school itself is unresourceful and seems to be a run down office building with teachers. Most of the teachers do not speak english well and the school is unreliable. Globe Institute Of Technology is falling apart and i do not reccomment anyone no matter their situation to attend this school.
