I did not attend the RI Johnson and Wales, I attended the DENVER campus.

Johnson & Wales in my opinion is NOT a very good school for the majority. It was not the school for me and up to this day (a year and a half later) I am still trying to get my life back on track after attending JWU. I made the mistake of getting the JOHNSON & WALES ACHIEVEMENT LOAN @ 8.0$% interest which I have been paying back since 6 months after leaving the school, among $7000 in other loans that I accrued in my short FIVE MONTHS at JWU. PLEASE DO NOT BE LURED INTO BELIEVING THAT JWU IS A PRESTIGIOUS AND ACEDICALLY RIGOROUS school like I did when I first did my campus tour. JWU is a school that likes to POSE as presitious and academically challenging, BUT what you really have at JWU is a nice Culinary School and a SNOTTY group of business students from rich families that think they are at STANFORD. FACULTY is SOMEWHAT helpful, somewhat UN-PROFESSIONAL aswell(an airline attendant is my English teacher?!!). ALSO, unless you are culinary the academics here are BLAND, UNCREATIVE, and CLICHE'. Overall, JWU is a RIP-OFF when it comes to education, IF YOU COME HERE AND DECIDE TO LEAVE-YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS TRANSFERING YOUR CREDITS TO A NORMAL UNIVERSITY!!!! Trust me, there are better schools out there for YOU BUSINESS & HOSPITALITY students, don't be lured into the first school you visit like I was. Good luck!!
