I have nothing really bad to say about the school itself. It's a fairly good school as far as education is concerned, not that much homework, which hey I ain't complaining. It eases you into the college structure with the workload which wasn't very much if you scheduled yourself out. Every school is pretty much the same with regards to the professors, they can go either way. I had some really good ones and others I could care less.

The setting is pretty nice, it feels very park-like. Buildings are spaced out so its nice and relaxing walking to class. They do take care of the campus very well, which in my opinion where most of the tuition money goes to. They have nearly every type of amenity needed for a student; tutoring center, writing center, etc.

Here's where it gets negative. The school's tuition is not worth the 30K a year, and thats without dorming. I live only 20 minutes from the campus so I didn't even bother with that extra expense. Why sleep in a bed if it will cost you ten grand and you only live 20 minutes away? Although you do have the out of staters which I can understand, but those who live on the island…not necessary. If you're a rich snob from long island who gets things handed to them on a wim and could give a **** less about the cost, then hey this university is perfect for you. The only reason why I came to the school was for a dang good scholarship.

If you're a commuter like me, be prepared to be out of the loop for most of the campus news. Barely anyone talks to each other unless they're in one of their little cliques that they formed in the dorms or someplace else. It was different for me because I had a part time job six days a week and went to class full time. Many of the students had no conception of what work felt like, and not that little part time gig on the weekends. It felt like High school all over again, not many of the students were academically focused unless they were on scholarship, others like a said could give less…Then again the university does have the reputation for passing everyone justfor showing up for class. I felt as if everyone from the island who went there thought they came from either two places; the north shore or the jersey shore. The girls at the college, I compare them to cars at a car show, look but don't touch. Very rarely did I find someone who was actually down to earth up there. They thought who they were and that ain't me.

Bottom line, you want a degree thats easy to get and costs 30K and change then go to Post! But if you're like me, an actual worker that wants an affordable education, look someplace else.
