" In terms of negatives, the Computer Science department has been pretty disappointing. The professors I've had have done little to actually teach. They more or less read off their notes, poorly, and then give us an assignment to do. I felt more confused than I was before and relied on my classmates for help. "

" West Chester University is a great suburban option with a medium size campus. Great for having the best of both worlds, big and small. I love that it's close the city of Philadelphia for job opportunities and internships. I love it here. "

" Great campus with a walkable downtown and plenty of things to do on any given night. There are also many great and very active clubs to join. I attended from 2021 to 2023 and really enjoyed my time there. It is easy to get transportation to Philadelphia. The school also does a good job placing student teachers and working to secure reciprocity with neighboring states for teaching licenses. "

" Good choice if you do not want to go to a big school. I loved the town and campus. Meet a lot of friends through organzations and clubs. I would say it is a good medium sized school. Lots to do. Parking on campus is difficult. I have heard meal plans are not great. "

" Good online school, would not recommend special education program if you do not plan on working in a learning support position. The program revolves around learning support. Compared to other online programs I've been a part of (Capella University), this online campus is less structured which can be frustrating since every professor sets up and does their class differently.
