THIS SCHOOL IS GARBAGE. IN FACT, I NEED TO APOLOGIZE TO GARBAGE FOR COMPARING IT TO PACE.DO SOMETHING GOOD FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR CAREER PATH AS A GROWING PROFESSIONAL AND AVOID COMING HERE AT ALL COST.PACE IS LIKE A HUGE MONEY MAKING MACHINE WITH ALL THE STRATEGIES TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO TAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR POCKET; AND THE MOST DISAPPOINTING PART IS THAT YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THAT MONEY IS GOING BECAUSE THE EDUCATION AND SERVICES ARE MEDIOCRE.THE SCHOOL CAFETERIA IS THE LIVING DEFINITION OF NASTY… THEIR LACK OF HYGIENE MAKES ME TREMBLE. FEW YEARS BACK, THEY CLOSED DOWN BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T PASS THE HEALTH INSPECTION. AFTER THAT, THEY PASSED THE INSPECTION WITH A D. UP TO TODAY, I STILL HEAR HORROR STORIES. MY FRIEND GOT A STOMACH BUG AND SPENT QUITE A FEW DAYS VOMITING AFTER EATING FROM THEIR SALAD BAR. A CLASSMATE FOUND A STAPLE IN HER SUSHI, AND I FOUND A GROWING/DEVELOPING BUG IN ONE OF THE NUT BOWLS PACKED BY THEM. WHEN I ADDRESSED THE CAFETERIA'S MANAGER HE SAID,I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED… THE NUTS WERE IN A PRETZEL BOX.NOW I WONDER, WHY THE HECK ARE THE NUTS IN A PRETZEL BOX? ON TOP OF THAT, THE CAFETERIA STAFF IS VERY RUDE TO THE POINT AT IT BECOMES DISRESPECTFUL. IF THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THEY WERE RUDE I WOULD LET IT GO BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE PERSONAL MATTERS GOING ON; IT'S THE FACT THAT THE TREATMENT BECOMES DISRESPECTFUL THAT TRULY BOTHERS ME (AS IF WE DIDN'T PUT OFF WITH ENOUGH ALREADY). PACE DOESN'T LET YOU REVOKE YOUR MEAL PLAN UNLESS YOU PROVIDE THEM WITH LEGIT MEDICAL OR RELIGIOUS REASON… IF NONE OF THESE APPLY TO YOU, BE PREPARED TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON GARBAGE.IN TERMS OF COST, THEIR WEBSITE SAY THAT THE COST OF ATTENDANCE EVERY YEAR FOR A NYC CAMPUS STUDENT IS $56,949… WELL, THEY'RE CHARGING US OVER $60,000 IN TUITION. AN EXTRA $4,000 DOLLARS DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A BIG DIFFERENCE, BUT IT IS AS THEY ADD UP.INCLUDED IN THE TUITION, THERE'S A CHARGE FOR "PERSONAL EXPENSES" AND "TRANSPORTATION" AND YET, YOU NEVER KNOW WHERE THAT MONEY GOES BECAUSE THEY CLEARLY DON'T PAY FOR ANYTHING. I EMAILED THEM FEW TIMES ASKING THEM WHY THEY'RE CHARGING THOSE IF THEY DON'T PAY FOR IT, AND THEY NEVER RESPONDED. SO A HEADS UP, BE PREPARED, IF YOU EMAIL THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE WITH ANY CONCERNS, IF THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO REPLY, OR IF THEY REQUIRE EXTRA DOCUMENTATIONS FROM YOU, THEY WILL SIMPLY IGNORE YOU AND LEAVE YOU HANGING.NOTE TO THEM: A COURTESY REPLY TO A STUDENT LETTING THEM KNOW WHAT THEY'RE MISSING OR ASKING THEM TO SHOW UP TO YOUR OFFICE WON'T BREAK YOUR ARM… YOU'RE GETTING (VERY VERY) WELL PAID FOR THIS.I SUGGEST, IF YOU'RE WILLING TO PAY $60,000 FOR AN INSTITUTION, FIND YOURSELF A COLLEGE WHERE THE PROFESSORS ARE AT LEAST PASSIONATE, HAVE A PROPER TEACHING STRATEGY, AND WHERE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SAY, I'VE GAINED VALUABLE KNOWLEDGE IN MY AREA OF STUDY AS WELL OTHER IMPORTANT RELATED ASPECTS.I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT HOW DISGUSTED I'M ABOUT THIS SCHOOL. BUT TO MAKE MATTERS SHORT, BE CAUTIOUS, READ OTHER REVIEWS, AND DON'T COME HERE JUST BECAUSE, "IT IS IN NEW YORK." MANY OTHER COLLEGES CAN GIVE YOU THE NEW YORK EXPERIENCE WITHOUT MAKING YOU GO THROUGH HELL.THE TOUR PEOPLE/STUDENTS IN THE SCHOOL WILL TELL YOU WONDERS ABOUT THE INSTITUTION, WHY? BECAUSE THE SCHOOL PROVIDE THEM WITH BONUSES LIKE A FREE DORM.(BTW, DORMING HERE IS A LIVING NIGHTMARE, MOST STUDENTS MOVE OUT, AND OTHERS SIMPLY DROP OUT). THE ELEVATING COST OF DORMING ISN'T WHAT BOTHER ME, WHAT BOTHERS ME IS THAT THEY DO NOT PROVIDE THE SERVICE THEY SHOULD WITH SUCH COST.ALSO, DON'T LET THEM LURE YOU WITH THE INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS, MOST OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW WERE ABLE TO GET INTERNSHIPS WITHOUT PACE'S HELP. AS LONG YOU'RE A DESCENT STUDENT, MOST EMPLOYERS ARE WILLING TO PROVIDE YOU WITH INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE MOST OF THEM ARE NOT PAID. I ATTEMPTED TO GO TO PACE'S CAREER SERVICE, AND AS I LOOKED AT THEIR LIST OF INTERNSHIPS, I'VE NOTICED THAT I HAVE ALREADY SEEM THEM ONLINE, WITH JUST A QUICK SEARCH.AH AND THE SCHOLARSHIP OFFER, ABOUT 90% PERCENT OF THE STUDENTS I'VE SPOKEN TO SAY THAT THEY CAME HERE BECAUSE OF THE SCHOLARSHIP (THAT INCLUDES MYSELF) AND THEIR SCHOLARSHIPS DECREASED GREATLY AFTER THEY DECIDED TO ENROLL TO THE SCHOOL (MYSELF INCLUDED). SO IF YOU'RE OFFERED A $20,000 SCHOLARSHIP, EXPECT THEM TO DECREASE IT TO $11,000. THIS PLACE IS A DISGUSTING REPRESENTATION OF A CENTER FOR HIGHER EDUCATION. DO NOT BOTHER COMING HERE.I REGRET TRANSFERRING TO THIS SCHOOL, IT IS MY GREATEST BURDEN.ON A LAST NOTE, ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE RECEIVED AN EMAIL STATING THAT THERE WAS AN ALARMING DROP OUT RATE… THERE YOU HAVE IT… MAKE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT.ANY POSITIVE ASPECTS?YES, I'VE HAVE MET A FEW PROFESSORS WITH THE WILLINGNESS TO DEVELOP YOUR FULL POTENTIAL. |
