While I can give you negatives (as there are in many schools), I wish to focus more on what you need to know before deciding to attend. For starters, opportunities are widely presented to you on campus, but if you are not a person to take the initiative than Chatham may not be for you. The staff and faculty can only encourage you so much, but you have to take the final step. If you do, you are guaranteed to succeed. Also, when choosing Chatham, you have to realize the class sizes are small and personalized. In the business programs, at least, it is highly group oriented, as Chatham tries to prepare you for real world environment. One thing that Chatham is very good at is teaching its students how to present and offering opportunities to improve for higher scores. While the grades are very important, what you got out of it is more important. Third, the staff and faculty know you by name. They care. Period. If you get involved in dramatics and believe that you can't be respectful, Chatham is not for you. We are a community and, within our peers, a 'sisterhood.' Also, if you are a religiously oriented student or an international student, Chatham is very accepting. We do not press our views onto each other, but teach each other for global understanding. Basically, Chatham is a school for a woman wanting structure and opportunities. It provides you with the ability to be world ready and to really grow into who you are rather than who someone wants you to be. Any opportunities to take place in the social environment can be found within other college campuses in Pittsburgh, so no opportunities are missed. I highly recommend Chatham University to all young women out there. Individual Value: A+, Faculty Accessibility: A- Have a Question?

I graduated from this school right before its University accreditation. The politics of which really have no place in my comments here. I want to say to all the prospective students out there reading this Chatham is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE and not a great education! The students are very dull and mediocre. The curriculum has been dumbed down over the years to match pace with the need to occupy classrooms with any warm body that will sign for the student loans to do so. Admissions are wide open for anyone, so if you are desperate for that B.A. or B.S. getting in will be no problem. But the exceedingly high cost is ridiculous: there's no way even the other homophobic, conservative Christian comments on this board would even tell you otherwise. If even those people say its not a good education and I would likely be contrary to anything those students say. Well thanks to this website finally leftist activists and right wing conservative Christian students have one thing common: we both are trying to tell you this school is not a good one.

I was told so many great things about Chatham before entering, and upon my first few visits to Chatham most people were friendly. But as time passed on quite honestly no one seems to give a damn, especially once you're a senior. Its like well, you're already here, paying tuition, we don't have to keep trying to make your experience a good one. The university is terribly unorganized and it is difficult to find out information, on graduation, tutorial, and internship procedures. There is a number of professors that are to say the the least, terrible, arrogant and self centered, and make you feel like you're nothing but a waste of their time. Stay away from applying for a degree in science and business fields, you can get a better experience elsewhere. Useful Schoolwork: A, Collaboration/Competitive: D- Have a Question?
