REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThe professors and teachers have great teaching styles and are also very easy to learn from. The material is relevant for today's society.
CAREY from Hixson, TN
So far so good! Sat in on some classes earlier last year and really learned alot!! I am excited about going in the fall!!
Matthew from Columbia, SC
I have learned so much during my years at Bryan. Students who come with questions find a lot of answers... and more questions! The professors are probably what make the experience in the classroom so great. Their willingness to answer questions and get us digging for answers makes education at Bryan very interactive. And for a visual and kinesthetic learner, that's important! By the way, here's a small fact I learned this year at Bryan in one of my Psychology major classes: the reason psychiatric drugs are so dangerous is because they cross the blood-brain barrier into your Central Nervous System.
CN from Massachusetts
The professors here are great. They really care about their students on a personal level as well as their classroom performance. The classes are tough but the professors make sure you understand the material and make it interesting for you to learn.
