Don't judge a schoolBrightLanguage - French/Spanish/etc.
Don't judge a school by how long it has been around. CNU is a school that is rising not only in the quantity of students on campus, but in the quality of education given those students. A great place to be, especially for honors work.

Question
School is High School with dorms.Quite Bright
School is High School with dorms. No social life, frats are boring, have to drive to parties, if there are any. Professors are cool but overall the school is a suite case school. No students on campus during the weekends. Alright education; school is in a bad part of VA; nothing too do in surrounding areas but go see movies.

Question
I left CNU in my freshman year andQuite BrightPreLaw and Legal
I left CNU in my freshman year and transferred. I feel that the school was misrepresented by everyone from the president down through admissions. Be skeptical of what admissions representatives tell you. Be skeptical of politicians turned college president. All schools are big business and it's more about money than education unfortunately. Ask lots of questions and get everything in writing. CNU cost me a year of time and a lot of lost money.
