The main problem is the school's inability to see how much work each individual program is. There is little help in terms of academic advice. The honor's program is unrealistic, the requirements to stay in the program are ridiculous! I would stay away from the honors program if you can. The honors program is what has made me want to leave the university. There are so many electives that have to be taken, and often the electives and regular classes directly conflict with each other. Don't even get me started on the "Advanced" electives. I thought the honors program had to do with a scholarship reward for academic success, but not at all. Some of the students in the honors program certainly do not deserve it. Basically, instead of being rewarded for being a fine student, you are given twice as much work to do.

Post is a good school if you are looking to be bored out of your mind. The social is TERRIBLE, the people here are very close minded and are all the same. Everyone is basically from long island and are all the same. The girls are very superficial with their orange skin, over done makeup and juicy couture sweat suits. The guy's are all Italian wannabes like the guy from "me new haircut". Parking is terribly, staff in the offices are not very helpfull and the only thing this school wants is money. If it's not bad enough that our tuition is about 40 grand, they fine us for everything. They fine us for finding a beer in the room, or sneaking out a random door, or being drunk outside on the weekends...I FORGOT THAT WE'RE NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL ANYMORE!!!. The school is so small and everyone knows each other, so annoying. If you are looking to come here, DO NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!! You will be bored out of your mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This college is a waste of your money, time, and they will try to get EXTRA money out of your pocket by any means possible. They screwed up on my bill and after trying to get a reason for over a year, they finally found THEIR mistake and they're making me pay extra for it.

The administration is HORRIBLE. Service is HORRIBLE. For the amount of money you pay for this, you are NOT getting the best education possible.

Don't waste your time here--- I really did enjoy my professors but otherwise I would have never gone to this LIU. You'll be dealing with hassels well after you graduate--- and most of my friends who WENT to LIU CW Post left after 1 or 2 years (tops). Some how I made it through 4 years, but I really regret going here and I want to make sure nobody else makes the same mistake.

I went to the university only because I was given an academic scholarship. I could not afford the university otherwise. After the first semester I began to build rapport with my classmates and professors when I found out that they took away my scholarship. When I asked the reason there was a form that I was unaware of that I had to sign. When I went to inquire, I was basically told "too bad" and was kicked out of the office. My father decided to try and support my college after seeing how well I was doing there. After two years I began getting into more advanced classes where most but not all of the professors were incredibly full of themselves. In one class I stopped going. I wouldn't be able to take another autobiography. There was nothing taught in the class other than the professor's personal history. I noticed that the professors were also biased to which students received their help and did not give attention equally and just wrote off students that were "more work". My father couldn't pay for the college anymore after three semesters. I attempted to get a student loan, which worked. For one year of class I had loans but after that I took one more semester that I just couldn't pay for. Now I am out of college with no degree, working a dead end job earning roughly two hundred and eighty dollars a week attempting to paying off thirty thousand dollars in student loans and Post us suing me for another thirteen thousand I owe them.
