"I think that overall I got a decent education at a very low price. Comparing value for price I think it was a good deal."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | maybe | I would recommend it for someone who is self-motivated and likes to work independently. If you need lots of instruction it may not work out for you. |
| Program Reputation | 4 | I think the reputation is probably a little less than the actual quality. This is a new program that only began in 2007 so a lot of people haven't even heard of it. |
| Program Quality | 6 | We had great teachers who really cared. However I think it was not as intensive as other schools' programs. |
| Instruction | 6 | I received decent training in this program but it could have been better. Career preparation and intensity of the curriculum are two weak spots. |
| How Difficult | 5 | We had fewer credit hours required than other programs, with only 43 hours needed for the degree. Some of the classes were challenging but a lot of them weren't. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | It was pretty hands on. Most of my classes didn't even have books. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 2 | Class schedules were not very flexible at all. There were only a couple of teachers in the program and most classes offered only once per year. |
| Academic Facilities | 7 | We had a great computer lab with Macintosh computers. The advisers were always available any time and they wanted to help you however they could. |
| Social Life | 6 | There were a lot of organizations and activities like Art League and Graphic Design Club. I was less social than I could have been just because I'm shy. |
| Placement Services | 2 | They didn't really give me anything in relation to job placement. I was just lucky they had an opening at the university and I applied for it. We were pretty much on our own with finding a job though. |
| Alumni Network | 9 | NSU has an excellent alumni network. It is a smaller university so it's easy to stay in touch too. |
