“Lack of individuality isNot so brightBiology
Lack of individuality is very apparent - the school values itself above everything. It might look all nice and shines - buildings are beautiful but that's what matters at this school - perception - outward appearances.

“I have given CNU semester after semester ofNot so brightBusiness - Management and Administration
I have given CNU semester after semester of chances to work for me. I have finally had enough and am transferring after the end of this semester (12 days woooo!)I tried going above and beyond in my studies. forming relationships with my professors, utilizing campus services and attending campus events, working an on-campus job ,working an off-campus job, joining Greek life and I have been met withe same things: severe boredom. no competition. unmotivated peers. unavailable professors and administrators. incompetent technology, terrible food and all I have left to take away with me is my tolerance to chug a case just so everyone around me look like acceptable people. If you want education, to start building a foundation for the rest of your life be it friendships, your career, etc. then my advice is this: don't go to CNU.

“The policies and judicial procedures pertaining to themBrightBusiness - Management and Administration
The policies and judicial procedures pertaining to them at this school are utterly ridiculous. Throw your 5th Amendment rights out the door. I got a drunk in public on my own driveway in a house off campus and the school charged me with an alcohol violation and disorderly conduct. i went through the judicial process that essentially forces you to incriminate yourself or be a liar. I now have to write a letter, pay a $100.00 fine, do 15 hours of service, attend counseling, do alcohol education, and one other education requirement. I cannot appeal the sanctions because there was no violation of my due process rights according to cnu policy. Word of advice: go somewhere else. between the mediocre education i am getting, the predatory policies, and the culture built on false premises; CNU just isnt worth it.
