Pros

Most of the professors are professional and are more than willing to help students who have trouble with certain subjects. Some are willing to do one-on-one classes with students. Most of all, they are understanding when it comes to family and hospital emergencies and make arrangements for students to make up quizzes and exams

Most of the professors are honest about students' overall performance in a classroom and on projects (they even tell you they will drop you out of class if no improvements are made). They are willing to give advice on how the student(s) can improve.

Professors encourage students to be more open-minded and aware of their surrounding and people's beliefs. The professors are open-minded about many things, socially and personally. They even invite guests from other professions and establishments to talk about their experiences, businesses, and accomplishments (professional references).

If a student is on friendly and professional terms with the professor(s), the professor(s) are more than happy to give them recommendations for jobs, scholarships, internships, and for gallery showings

Some professors are flexible with assignments and give you straight-forward, easy-to-understand textbooks and, sometimes, study packets to keep up in track for certain classes (i.e College Math, Art History, English, and various History classes)

Professors are open when it comes to students informing them about purchasing textbooks (new or used) from a different vendor or book store.

The atmosphere is ideal for students who are part-time or full-time workers with families. Class schedules are available for the evenings and weekends.

Occasionally, there are parties that invite the student body to come and be acquainted with staff members and learn of more scholastic/public opportunities

There are Student Lounges, a few restaurants, and corner stores surrounding the university. Students can get discounts with their Student IDs (of course)

Computer labs are open from morning to night

Admissions process is a piece of cake (some employees walk you through the process)

The university is ideal for: Education, Business, Liberal Arts, Psychology,Mathematics, and Computer Programming Majors

Cons

Unless the student has a family and is a working adult full-time or part-time, the atmosphere may seem too anti-social or quiet for sociable, outgoing students.

Some professors are Adjuncts, meaning they will not always be on campus grounds and do not have means of contacting them via telephone or e-mail

It will be tougher to get language and art classes now that the university phased them out…

Some professors are unhelpful and arrogant

Some classes will get cancelled due to low student attendance before the beginning of a quarter

A student cannot attend class if he/she has a debt from a previous quarter

Not everyone of the student body is friendly and approachable (Just a warning to the social butterflies)

The decor of the university is an eye sore (For those that care…)

Be mindful to keep your receipts with you after paying your fees and tuition. Sometimes, Financial Aid and the accounting department tend to lose track of students' payment records
