| Instruction | 9 | It had a very good internship program that wasn't offered at larger schools. Excellent professors who were very concerned for the students. |
| How Difficult | 8 | Because it was a smaller school they had a lot of individual work that was to be done. They also offered a lot of individual help which cut down on challenges. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | The internship program was very hands on. Work study programs allowed for hands on learning in the accounting field. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 10 | A very good selection of night classes. And all classes offered different hours to attend. |
| Academic Facilities | 6 | Didn't have a separate business college. It did have conveniently located classes that were centralized. |
| Social Life | 4 | Not a whole lot of activities since it was smaller school. Athletics weren't great because it was primarily an academic school. |
| Placement Services | 8 | Didn't have a lot of support for finding jobs except for in the local area. They did have very good internships. |
