If you have other choices, do not go here. The students are horrible, I felt like I was at a community college for the obscenely rich. It suited my needs for a semester, which was to go to school in Boston. I quickly transferred out to attend UMass Boston.

The elevators in the dorms were broken half the time, frequently trapping students in there for hours. The cafeteria food was subpar and outrageously priced. I ate on the cheap and my meals were usually around $7. Many people used up their entire food allowance half way through the semester.

Let's see, the advisors are pushy assholes who don't ask you anything about your plans for life and if you express interest in anything outside your major expect to be berated, I sure was. I was talked down to like a child instead of a 24 year old adult, a very frustrating experience.

I could go on but I shan't. The one good thing I noticed was a lot of tea hers were adjuncts with real life experience which was nice. Outside of that my one semester at Suffolk cost me more than my whole education at UMass.

I'd seriously consider elsewhere.

Responses
commentThis sounds as if it's an honest review. Thank you. I am from Texas and so desperately wanted to study in Boston. I was accepted to SU this fall but cannot afford the remainder of its tuition. I cried and am very heartbroken, but reading your review has made me feel as if I've made a good choice in choosing University of Texas at Dallas! Thanks! Wish you the best!
