I only attended for one semester and the semester was a tough one for me as I struggled with insomnia- that made keeping up with my classes rough as well as my attendance spotty as I would sometimes fall asleep during the day.  I also transfered in starting with the fall semester and in many ways never felt like I fit in.  I never established any deep relationships but there were many great people that I did meet during my time there. 

If you are not willing to submit to the rules, of which there are more than your 'average' Christian school, then do not bother in going as you likely will end up bitter and full of hate.  I met more than a few people like this while there, of which I never understood in why they chose to go to MBI and then rebel against what they knew they were getting into.  Even though this is a Christian school, you have to remember that it is still filled with imperfect people that are just forgiven and not perfect people.  Do not lie to yourself in thinking that this school is going to be some sort of utopia, because you will be sorely disappointed. 

The profs I had were friendly and helpful and most were challenging in terms of academics.  The adminstration that I interacted with were friendly and helpful.  Students seem to mainly come from the midwest and south regionally and do tend to be from fairly conservative denominations.  I felt like I was not liked by some because I was from Southern California.  Just like any other organization, you will find some great people and you will find some people that you would rather not interact with.  Some of the females from my sister floor were very stand offish and unfriendly while others were very friendly.  I read a few reviews from others crying about interactions with the opposite sex and restrictions of this, of which I never felt any of this.  Other than the restrictions on PDA (Public Displays of Affection) there was nothing to stop me from have a friendship or more with any female in the school.  Actually, the best friendships that I did develop there were with females. 

For me, it was a great school and I wish that I was able to stay but other things came up and my life has taken other turns.  Perhaps one day, I will return to finish my degree.
