| Would Recommend? | yes | The school was very professional and helped me in obtaining my degree. I do not regret my choice. |
| Program Reputation | 8 | Many people that have graduated from my program have gone on to be very successful in business. |
| Program Quality | 10 | My school, I feel, had teachers that knew their stuff. I feel that I was able to get a quality education at this institution. |
| Instruction | 10 | Again, the instructors are very professional and knowledgeable. If they did not know the answer right away, they were very eager to find someone that did. |
| How Difficult | 5 | I would have to say that the work load was average. I was able to work part time and complete my degree. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | It was a decent mix of both. With weekly readings and discussions, it made the school environment very learner friendly. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 7 | We had assignments that were due at the end of week. This made it very easy to plan ahead for the week if one has a job. |
| Academic Facilities | 8 | We had a virtual library with thousands of reference material on hand. This came in very handy with reports and papers. |
| Social Life | 10 | There were virtual chats that one could participate in. This was nice to have when one had a question about an assignment. |
| Placement Services | 10 | They have a network of several virtual and physical job fairs that one can attend. The information is out there and available on their website. |
| Alumni Network | 10 | I have been reached out via email and letter about my school's alumni network. It is very well put together and professional. |

| Would Recommend? | maybe | A small private school is expensive. I might recommend a larger public school to save some money. |
| Program Reputation | 5 | It is a small private school so it does not carry much of a reputation. However, that was not a consideration for me when choosing it. |
| Program Quality | 7 | I was prepared. Psychology helps when dealing with the public! |
| Instruction | 7 | The instruction was well executed. It was a liberal arts college that presented a rounded curriculum. |
| How Difficult | 8 | The field of psychology is difficult to understand. However, it does help when dealing with the public. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | Several labs were offered to complement classes. I also participated in several off site evaluations. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 5 | It was a traditional school that did not offer many night classes. This was not necessary. |
| Academic Facilities | 7 | We had many different resources available to us. I was even able to tutor people. |
| Social Life | 5 | I was more interested in studying than the social aspect. However, lots of activities were offered. |
| Placement Services | 2 | After graduation we were on our own. I did not have trouble finding a job based on my education. |
