I attended the Providence campus for 2 years and finished my second two in Denver. I also studied abroad which I would absolutely recommend to any JWU undergrad.

This school is what you make of it. If you are self motivated they will give you the tools and discipline to become a viable job candidate, run your own business, or develop a worldly view. If you are not—you will likely drop out.

JWU provides great resources - they teach you the practical skills students at other schools miss out on. They focus on your career path, how to build a resume, practice interviewing, required internships and practical application, and the importance of building a network, just to name a few.

The success stories of JWU alumni are numerous and varied, often about a young graduate obtaining a position not normally granted to someone fresh on the job market. Don't get me wrong, we all pay our dues, but JWU gives you the opportunity to get experience PRIOR to graduating. And no class Friday's is supposedly instituted to encourage it :)

As a student you can do as well at JWU as any other school. On the same vein - you can do just as crappy as you could at another school. It's up to you.

The Denver campus IS too small. If I went there for my freshman year I would have laughed at it and left - it's smaller than most high schools in the city. Providence was a crazy party and great college town to explore. The people are snooty - and the guidos are in full force there so shield your eyes from spiky hair and you should be good to go.
