The raise tuition rates faster than you can blink an eye. The raise our technology fee from $1000 a year to $1950 this year. All you get is a new $1500 apple your freshman year. With 4k students they steal 7.6 million a year for tech fees. What a crock. $41k tuition. What ever you do don't go here. Abusive.

Things have gotten so bad here that I'm ashamed to call myself a graduate. The school is becoming more and more irrelevant as they hire more pop music faculty. I think this is largely due to Darla Hanley's influence. We can thank her for some of the worst hires possible in musicology and music ed. We have a "professor" who specializes in Motown. Also, the school recently sponsored a convention on pop singing. I could go on and on about the many failing of this school. Also, I have to agree with some of the comments made by others about the incompetence of the administration and the school's inclination to repeatedly change degree requirements or cut programs. They really don't care about you. It's all about picking up a paycheck.

The school does not provide detailed information concerning tuition and curriculum changes. They can change your program at any given moment and move your credits to the new program. They apparently reserve the right to do what they want with your credits while you still have to pay for them. They state that if it doesnt change your graduation date, you are not affected. all they are concerned with is the graduation date and not what it costs to attend new classes.....its extra for labs and clinicals. They do not follow their own greivance procedures. Appealing to the President of the school is useless and a waste of time.....he passes it on to the very person you're appealing. Student body is not small. They have way too many students and not enough classroom space to accomidate them. They also do not have enough faculty to accomidate the growing student body. Its all about the money for them and not whats legally right for their students.
