 " The professors are great for the most part. Very knowledgeable and well versed in their area of expertise. However, administratively at times, they are lacking. The classes are good and the content is enriching. I truly feel prepared to go out into my chosen field and perform at a high level. "

 " I am currently enrolled in an online program at the school. The faculty are very flexible and want each student to succeed! Some of the professors have terminal degrees, others do not, but all of them are knowledgable and have practical experience in the field. "

 " I attended for both my master's and doctoral degrees. Overall, I had a more positive experience in the master's program. I felt supported by all the professors and felt challenged in my clinical work. In general, I found professors not as engaged in the doctoral program and having expectations that did not fit a clinical degree. The school is extremely expensive and there are not many scholarship options making it difficult to manage the life/work/school balance. "

 " The school is too big and does not do well in providing individual support to the students. You are a number. It has come close to losing accreditation multiple times. Each year has its own set of guidelines and rules that apply which makes asking for support and help difficult and it even confuses the staff. "
