Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | I have and will continue to recommend Stevenson to other students interested in pursuing their education. It's not so large a school that you get lost in the mix; you receive just enough personal attention to make it that much more special. |
| Program Reputation | 9 | Stevenson is well favored among employers in the greater Baltimore area. I have been able to get positions over others, as a result of my studies with Stevenson and their reputation. |
| Program Quality | 8 | I majored in a general business degree program, which allowed me to take a few marketing classes. These classes were very interesting and provided real-world experience and case studies, in order to develop the skills necessary to work in the marketing field. |
| Instruction | 8 | I had great marketing professors who have been in the marketing world for years. Their experience, brought into the classroom, provided us the depth and scope needed to supplement the book learning. |
| How Difficult | 8 | I had a fairly heavy workload, but it wasn't unreasonable for the level of classes. We were constantly challenged and made to think outside of the box. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | Depending on the professor (adjunct or full-time), there was often a nice mix of both. For my major classes, the adjunct professors brought in real-world case studies and scenarios to work on while learning the theory. Other professors, for classes like economics and accounting, relied more on the book learning method. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 10 | Since I started, their class offerings branched out to online, accelerated (8 weeks), weekend and evening classes. This has personally benefited my schedule, once I started to work full-time. |
| Academic Facilities | 10 | They have great computer labs with plenty of seats for all students. Additionally, they have built new facilities to include a small stadium, new cafeterias, and mock trial courtrooms, and they have integrated technology throughout. It is very state of the art. |
| Social Life | 10 | I absolutely loved my university and wish I could go back to repeat it. The bonds I have made with the professors and the students are priceless. Overall, I have considered this to be the best possible college experience. |
| Placement Services | 10 | Stevenson's career services team has personally assisted me with my resume, finding internship positions and jobs over the past many years. Even as an alum, their teams are available and positions are posted online. |
| Alumni Network | 10 | Stevenson has a great alumni experience. There are constant meet-and-greets, networking events, seminars and social events. |
